When combined with SpeakerCraftís AIMô series of fully pivoting in-ceiling speakers, a complete high performance home theatre system can be mounted into the ceiling of a room.SpeakerCraftís ingenious design and mounting system for the BassX allow it to be easily installed in either new construction, utilizing a snap-on drywall ring, or retrofit into existing rooms with a standard folding installation bracket. The BassX system comes complete with an easy-to-use wire harness and connecting block.The BassX subwoofer features dual 8-inch woofers in an isobaric configuration. The woofers are mounted inside a 10-inch round by 10-inch deep enclosure that will fit any ceiling stud spacing.
