Wall mounting the M10 Bookshelf Loudspeaker

The M Series Bookshelf Loudspeakers feature a built-in keyhole slot for easy wall mounting. When wall mounting, we recommend using either bare wire or spade lug connections to ensure flush mounting. Follow the steps below to safely wall mount these speakers. Wall mounting requires basic skills with tools such as a drill and a screwdriver. If you are in doubt that you possess the necessary skills or tools, con- sult your Polk Audio dealer, or a professional installer.

Make sure the material on which you plan to mount the speakers (plaster, drywall, paneling, stone, etc.) can support the weight of the speakers (M10=approx 9lbs/4kg ea)

Make sure the locations you select do not conceal electrical wiring or plumbing.

Prior to installation, hold the speaker in the chosen location to make sure it safely clears obstacles such as ceiling, adjacent walls, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/window frames.

Each speaker has a keyhole mounting slot on the back panel. The slot appears centered approximately 3 1/4" from the left corner of the M10. Use these measurements to mark to your mounting location, being sure to leave approximately 1-2" of clearance above the speaker to compensate for the function of the keyhole slot.

If you are certain that there is a stud behind the wall surface, drive #10 sheet metal screws (not included) through the wall and into the stud [figure 2a].

If there is no stud behind the wall at the chosen location, install #10 wall

anchors (not supplied) into the wall by following the wall-anchor-manufacturer’s instructions. [figure 2b].

Tighten screws into stud or wall anchors, leaving screw heads protruding 1" to 2" to leave room for attached wire and ensure that the screw fits into the keyhole slot. The speaker should mount flush to the wall.

Line up the keyhole slot so that the screw head passes through the large center hole of the slot.

Let the speaker slide straight down, allowing the screw head to slip

behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot [figure 3].

Tug gently on the speaker to make certain that the speaker is secure.

If the speaker is not held snug against the wall by the screw heads, remove the speaker from the wall, drive the screws in a little further and then remount the speaker.
