Using Speaker Mounts/Brackets

Threaded inserts for M5 screws are provided on the rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with commercially available speaker mounts and brackets. Refer to the man- ual supplied with your mounts or brackets for installa- tion details.

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 9.5 mm or less and a shank diameter of 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.

Leave a gap of between 7 mm and 10 mm between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker’s threaded insert should be between 5 mm and 9 mm long, as shown.
