Wall Mounting the Speakers

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots.

To mount the front or surround speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that’s securely screwed into the wall.

Front Speakers (SKF-960F)

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 5/16" (8 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 5/32" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Keyhole slot for wall mounting

Leave a gap of between 7/32" (5 mm) and 3/8" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(We recommend that you consult a home installa- tion professional.)
