Those 2 cables were in that joist bay for 2- 4" hi-hats. Because that
joist bay was only 5 " wide, I could only put in the 4" old work hi-
hats.
If you look at the "after" pictures you can see the 4" hi-hats next to
the conventional 6" hi-hats. I wanted as much light in that room as
possible. The 6" hi-hats close to the wall were not a problem, but
more to the middle of the room, one joist bay had a duct running in
it, so that was my only other option, the 4" hi-hats.
