Installing the Sub Woofer
Compartment
The installation of the sub woofer compartment consists of removing
the panel, removing the paper cover, exposing the plug, removing the
plug, and installing the sub woofer compartment.
1. If you have a spa with wood siding you may skip to Step 2. If
your spa has EnviroTect siding you will need to remove the
white foam sheeting.
2. Using a locking utility knife set for a depth of about ½ inch,
cut a 13” X 18.5” rectangle as shown in the photo below.
Remove the paper and foam until you expose the sub woofer
plug. You may need to use a screwdriver or other tool to
remove the paper and foam.

The photograph above may not look
like your spa, refer to Table 3.
3. Once the plug is exposed, use a screwdriver to punch holes
in the foam large enough to insert your hands and pull the
plug out of the spa.
The plug may not come out in one
piece.

4. Use a medium size pair of needle nose pliers to remove the
large staples in the bottom rail where the plug was removed.
5. Remove all remnants of the plastic bag inside the
compartment where the plug was removed. This will expose
the electrical conduit.
The electrical conduit may not always
be in this location. It will vary from spa
to spa.

Sonic Immersion System Dealer Installation Guide
It is important that the ruler or square
(see picture on previous page) be kept
level and at the top of the recess area
while making these measurements.
2. Use the measurements determined in Step 1 and insert them
into the following formula:
Distance A = ______ Distance B = _______
A + 1” = Vertical Position (VP) _________
B + ¾” = Horizontal Position (HP)________
3. Now proceed to Cutting Panel Hole for CD Player

1. Using number obtained for the Vertical Position (VP),
measure up from bottom of panel, see below, and mark spot
with a fine point marker.

2. Using measurement obtained for Horizontal Position (HP),
measure from side of panel, see below, and mark spot with a
fine point marker.
3. The point where these two lines intersect is the upper right
corner of the template (P/N Doc 74 Rev A).
4. Align the upper right corner of the template with the mark
on the panel. Use a center punch to mark the spot.
5. Square up the template on the panel and use the center
punch to mark the other three corners.
6. Using a machinist’s square or straight edge, connect all four
marks.

7. Using a 3/8”bit, drill holes in two corners of the rectangle.
Make certain that the holes are within the lines. Using a
center punch to mark the drilling centers will prevent the
drill bit from wandering.
8. Using a saber saw, cut out the rectangular piece from the
panel.
9. Depending on where the hole in the panel is located you may
need to use some Silicone caulking in the panel grooves to
prevent moisture from entering the CD player, see picture
below.
