Do the Triads typically fit in a standard wall,
with 2x4's or do they have to be in deeper walls.
Just curious. They look bigger than other in-walls,
but they look much better. Thanks
When you go to the website or browse the literature, you will see the InWall & InCeiling speakers and the InWall PowerSubs have a /4, /6, /10, or /15 in the name... that figure stands for the required wall cavity depth.
Any InWall speaker or PowerSub with a /4 in it's name fits into a standard 2x4 framing, the /6 fits into 2x6 framing. The /6 and /8 InCeilings easily fit into joist cavities, and the /10 & /15 subwoofers are designed to be used in false walls or walls adjoining utility space where a protruding enclosure will not draw any attention.
The best part about the InWall subs is that they have the same high current amps, beefy drivers, and incredibly well built enclosures as the InRoom models. So unlike the in wall subs from everyone else, Triad's InWall subs PERFORM like subs...
Here is the measured drawing of the model I posted above.
You can see by the drawing that it takes the full depth of the cavity for the entire width of the cutout. You NEED to make sure there are no water or sprinkler pipes or big bundles of cables in the stud or joist cavities you choose, because these aren't shallow like your normal open back speakers...
