Atlas Sound FAP82-TR – New Construction Rough-In Ring for FAP82T and FAPSUB-1

Product Overview

The Atlas Sound FAP82-TR is a new construction rough-in ring designed for use with the FAP82T ceiling speaker and FAPSUB-1 subwoofer before ceiling drywall or tile is installed. It allows contractors to position and secure the speaker or subwoofer cutout location during the framing and rough-in phase of construction, so the finish speaker can be installed cleanly after ceilings are completed. The FAP82-TR is an essential planning tool for projects where ceiling speaker locations must be committed to during construction rather than retrofit.

Product Description

The FAP82-TR rough-in ring is used in new construction projects to establish the mounting position for the Atlas Sound FAP82T ceiling speaker or FAPSUB-1 subwoofer before the ceiling surface is applied. During rough-in, the ring is attached to the framing or ceiling structure at the planned speaker location, providing a reference point and template that survives the ceiling finish process. Once drywall or ceiling tile is installed and finished, the installer cuts to the ring and drops in the finish speaker without additional measuring or cutting guesswork. This approach reduces installation error and ensures all speaker locations align with the original design layout. The ring is compatible with both the FAP82T, a coaxial in-ceiling speaker, and the FAPSUB-1 in-ceiling subwoofer, providing a single accessory that covers two related product lines in the same installation. The construction of the ring is designed to hold position under the mechanical forces of ceiling material installation, maintaining the correct cutout location through plastering, painting, or tile installation. New construction rough-in rings like the FAP82-TR are standard practice in professional AV installations in commercial, hospitality, and high-end residential projects where precise speaker placement and clean finish work are required. Using the manufacturer-specified ring ensures dimensional compatibility with the final speaker or subwoofer assembly.
