The SolidDrive SD1sm can be installed directly to
wooden surfaces to deliver high-quality sound. Even
if your existing offices or conference rooms aren’t
wired for audio, the SolidDrive SD1sm provides a
convenient solution and installs underneath desks,
counter tops and conference room tables so the sound
source is not visible.
When using the SolidDrive SD1sm for a wooden
surface be sure to order it without the mounting
bracket which is for in-wall and in-ceiling installations
only. The oversized mounting base on the SolidDrive
SD1sm allows it to be screwed directly to the
underside of furniture. For maximum output each
SolidDrive channel should have available at least 20
squarefeet of surface area.
The SolidDrive SD1sm should be surface mounted with
the oversized mounting base facing the mounting area.
The mounting base is the audio output side opposite the
label. For surfaces made of wood, laminates, and
composites the SolidDrive SD1sm should be screwed
directly to the surface.
Once you have determined where to mount the
SolidDrive SD1sm use the appropriate length wood
screws to attach it securely to the surface. The best
mounting location is typically out of sight on the
underside or back of desks, counter tops, conference
tables or other office/home furniture. The four
pre-drilled mounting holes on the SolidDrive SD1sm
oversized mounting base will hold wood screws as
large as #9.
Some installations may require that pilot holes be
drilled into the surface material due to it’s hardness
especially if larger, course thread screws are used.
