RE: Bathroom Speakers Installation...any tips please?!

["Paul Gale" <groups2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Re the lovely artex! You may have problems as you'll probably need to
cut a=
smooth area of artex up to the ceiling fabric (plasterboard?) for the flan=
ge of the speaker to sit flat on. Otherwise, the speaker installation is
re=
ally easy and normally (depending on make), several screws are tightened
wh=
ich pulls some rear fixings into place. I think you may need to re-artex a
=
round flat area around each speaker?
