5.The mounting bracket is designed to trap the flange of the JBL Control NOW speaker by securing the mounting-bracket cap with two screws through the bottom of the mounting bracket. Run the loose end of the multiunit wiring adapter through the rear cable-management hole in the mounting bracket, and rest the JBL Control NOW speaker’s rear flange in the mounting bracket, as shown. This will support the weight of the speaker. Now slide the mounting- bracket cap over the assembly. Secure the mounting-bracket cap by inserting two #10-32 x 2" screws (provided) in the bottom of the mounting bracket and tightening.

8.Now connect the wires to the terminal assembly.

IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making

any connections. For speaker connections, use a high-quality speaker wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e., +).

NOTE: If desired, consult your local JBL dealer about speaker wire and connection options.
