Caution:

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors. Use screws with a head diameter of 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8 inch (or 4 mm) or less (No. 8 or smaller). With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Leave a gap of between 9/32"(7 mm) and 13/32"

(10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

Using Speaker Mounts/Brackets

Threaded inserts for M5 machine screws (1/4-inch screws for North American model) are provided on the rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with commer- cially available speaker mounts and brackets. Refer to the manual supplied with your mounts or brackets for installation details.

Note:

The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker’s threaded insert should be between 1/5" and 3/8" of an inch long (5 mm and 9 mm).
