| Both of these systems are a 3-wire system. That means that you will be able to use your existing wiring. The IM-3303 should be used with the IA-119 adapter frame. With the frame the new master measures !7" x 9 3/4" which is just large enough to cover the old hole, but not large enough to cover the foot print made by the 2011/2012. This might require you to do some touch up painting. |
2000A Master Rough-in | IR-104 Rough-in
| The IR-104 rough-in is 3/4" longer and 2 3/8" narrower than the old rough-in. The little gap on top and bottom of the new rough-in will be covered by the master station. |

| IS-338 Speaker | The IS-338 is large enough to cover the hole and footprint of the old speakers. |
