JBL CS480 manual WALL-MOUNTING the Satellites and Center Channel, Fixed-Mount Wall Bracket

WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES AND CENTER CHANNEL

The CS480 satellites and center channel are designed to be mounted on the wall. There is a fixed-mount wall bracket and an adjustable wall bracket provided for each satellite and the center channel. Each speaker bracket will require up to four 1-1/2"#10 wood screws; each screw should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for a 1-1/2" #10 screw.

NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection

and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers.
