Model FW-8 is an attractive beveled edge steel grille with perforated center and a separate speaker-to-backbox subplate. The grille is finished in white powder epoxy. The subplate is finished in black powder epoxy and includes corrosion-resistant 8-32 hardware to mount an 8” EIA speaker. The speaker/subplate assembly is engineered to direct-mount to a backbox using 8-32 x 1.5” screws provided. The direct-mount installation method allows a high quality 8” driver with substantial motor structure weight to be supported by the backbox instead of the grille. The non-loadbearing FW-8 grille mounts using four 8-32 x 0.375” white screws. See spec sheet for compatible components. Order speaker and backbox separately.
