CS10 ceiling subwoofer Introduction The CS10 is a self-contained subwoofer, utilising an 8ohm 10" (250mm) low frequency driver, designed specifically to be mounted above a suspended ceiling replacing one 600mm x 600mm tile. The enclosure is made from fire retardant MDF and the grille is perforated steel, painted RAL9010 white with a 20% gloss finish to blend in with most white suspended ceilings. The subwoofer is fixed via three wrap-around brackets. CS10 specifications 2 All material © 2007.

Martin Audio ceiling loudspeakers must be installed by experienced ceiling loudspeaker installation technicians It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that all relevant local, national and international electrical, fire and building safety regulations are complied with Threaded steel rods or steel eyebolts must be permanently attached to the brackets pr
These brackets and their associated M8 socket head bolts are supplied with the unit. The brackets will accept either eyebolts, or 8mm threaded rod. Brackets may be mounted either vertically (for hanging) or horizontally (for side fixing). Bracket mounted vertically Bracket mounted horizontally One of brackets bolts directly to the bass unit adding further to the safety of the installation in case of fire. All three brackets must be used.
The subwoofer grille may be positioned so that it visually replaces a ceiling tile in a suspended ceiling but, we repeat - the subwoofer must not rely on the suspended ceiling structure for its support. Hint: It is easier to install your CS10 above a suspended ceiling structure if you temporarily remove surrounding ceiling tiles for better access and light.
