ABOUT THE

BACK BOX

Thank you for purchasing the JBL

Performance P81BB/P941BB Back

Boxes, which are optional rear enclo-

sures for the JBL P81 and P941 In-Wall

Loudspeakers. The P81BB/P941BB

Back Boxes which provide optimal vol-

ume for woofer alignment and reduce

acoustic bleed-through to rooms

adjacent to your listening area. The

P81BB/P941BB Back Boxes also func-

tion as mounting brackets designed

tofacilitate the installation of the

P81/P941 in-wall loudspeakers in new

construction or major retro-fit installa-

tions. The back boxes improve sonic

performance while providing solid sup-

port for the speaker mounting frame

and baffle assembly. Since the back

box is installed before the drywall is

mounted, it allows the speakers to be

mounted in a clean, efficient manner.

The JBL P81BB/P941BB Back Box

measures 17-1/2 inches x 28-5/8 inches

(445mm x 727mm) (including the

flanges). The back box is designed

to mount between two 2x4-inch (or

2x6-inch) wall studs on 16-inch centers.

See Figures 1 and 2 for inner dimen-

sions of the P81BB and P941BB.

The following items are required for

installation:

•tape measure

•carpenter’s level

•pencil

•hammer

•nails

•drywall section

•drywall screws

•staples/U nails

•utility knife

•service wire (included)

•work gloves

•face mask

CAUTION

The back box should be installed by a

professional. Installers must adhere to

local building codes to ensure proper

installation. JBL is not responsible for

any injury or damage caused by

improper installation.

Back Box Depth

NOTE

Figure 3 shows the depth of the back

box. It can be installed in walls con-

structed with standard 2x4s. It is impor-

tant to note that the speaker mounting

frame requires a minimum depth (from

the wall face to the inside back of the

P81BB/P941BB Back Box) of 3-1/2 inches

(88.9mm) for proper installation. This

can only be achieved by using 5/8-inch

(15.9mm) drywall on the wall face. It is

recommended that the installer consult

with the drywall installer before begin-

ning the installation.

CAUTION

Installers are advised to wear work

gloves and face masks when installing

the back box and making wire con-

nections, as the back box contains

fiberglass.

Figure 4: Place the Back Box

Between Wall Studs

1. Use a tape measure to determine the

location where the speaker is to be

mounted. Refer to the JBL P81/P941

In-Wall Loudspeaker owner’s manual

for speaker placement considera-

tions. Record exact measurements

from the floor, ceiling and an adja-

cent drywall section.

NOTE

The P81BB/P941BB Back Box elimi-

nates sensitivity to placement consid-

erations due to standing waves within

the wall cavity, as described in the JBL

P81/P941 In-Wall Loudspeaker owner’s

manual.

2. Position the back box between two

wall studs and into the wall cavity, as

shown in Figure 4. The back box must

be placed between standard 16-inch

on-center stud spacing. If desired,

the back box can be mounted upside

down (large flange toward the floor)

if you will be mounting the speaker

close to the ceiling.

Figure 5: Fasten Back Box to

3. Firmly secure the back box into place

using nails, as shown in Figure 5.

CAUTION

Installers must adhere to local building

codes to ensure proper installation.

JBL is not responsible for any possible

damage caused by improper installation.

4.Feed the power amplifier wires from

the wall cavity down through the

cable clamp located on top of the

enclosure. Pull approximately two

feet of wire through the clamp to

create a generous service loop

inside the enclosure for ease of

hookup, as shown in Figure 6.

the wires in place

CAUTION

Be sure to comply with local wiring

codes. JBL is not responsible for any

damage or injuries that may result from

faulty wiring.

6. Place the section of drywall over

the back box. With tape measure

and pencil, carefully measure and

mark where to position the wall

template (included with the loud-

speaker) by using the measure-

ments recorded in Step 1.

7. Use the wall template to trace

where to cut the drywall.

8. Cut a small hole in the center of the

template area to make sure the

template is in the right location.

9. After confirming the correct loca-

tion, cut the template hole opening,

asshown in Figure 7. Use a carpen-

ter’s level to ensure the opening is

level.

Figure 7: Cut Opening in Drywall

10. Fasten the drywall to the wall studs

using drywall screws.

11. Install the speaker mounting frame

into the wall opening. Refer to the

JBL P81/P941 In-Wall Loudspeaker

owner’s manual for complete

instructions.

12. Route wires to the top of the
