JBL Cinema Vision  CVRIF50 Installation Instructions

1.  To accommodate correct

speaker orientation, the CVRIF50 

can be installed horizontally or 

vertically. For vertical installation, 

the snap on wings (a) must be

used (see Fig. 1). In horizontal 

installation, if cross braces are 

available above & below the speaker 

location, the snap-on wings (see (a) 

in Fig. 4) can be used (see Fig. 2), or 

the rough-in-frame tabs (see (b) in 

Fig. 4) can be directly nailed onto 

vertical wall studs (see Fig. 3). 

Note : Horizontal installation may 

require modification of existing wall-

studs location. This should only be done 

by a professional licensed contractor. 

2.  When using installation methods shown 

in Fig.1 or Fig. 2, snap the two flat wing 

sections (see (a) in Fig. 4) onto the rough

-in-frame. 

Note:  Use the edge of the wing 

with the set of two large rectangular openings 

(see (e) in Fig. 4).  

3.  Position the rough-in-frame assembly as required

between the wall studs or cross braces and nail into place.

Be sure that the nail heads are set as flush as possible

against the snap-on wings or the rough-in-frame tabs

(see (b) in Fig. 4). 

Note:  wire tabs (see (c) in Fig. 4 or

Fig. 5) go towards the back (inside of the wall).  

4.  See Fig. 5. Pre-routed wire can be held in place using

the molded wire tabs (c) on the back side of the frame

unit. Be sure that no wire remains exposed on the front

(wall board) side of the assembly. 

Note:  In order to facilitate 

correct wall board installation, the raised inner lip of the rough-

in-frame (d) serves as a physical barrier that the wall board 

edge should rest against. After wall board installation is

complete, the speaker wire can run through the opening

in the wall board and attached to the speaker system

as detailed in the CVIW50 installation manual.  

Note : Installation of the rough-in 

frame requires removal of the wall 

board.  It is therefore recommended 

for new construction or major 

remodels only.
