Connecting the Speakers, Connecting ‘SM’ Models

Wall-Mounting with Supplied ‘U-Bracket’

Stylus® speakers can be mounted horizontally or vertically with the ‘U’ bracket.

1.Unscrew the knobs from either end of the speaker.

2.Using appropriate screws/mounting hardware (not included), mount the bracket and a safety strap (not included, see dealer) on the wall in the desired location. Make sure the bracket is straight. In-wall speaker wire can then be directed through the large opening in this bracket which allows connection from behind the speaker terminals to hide the speaker wire as much as possible.

3.Bring the speaker up to the bracket and connect the speaker cable as outlined in “Connecting the Speakers” below.

4.Pull the bracket slightly apart and carefully fit the speaker into the bracket, one end at a time to avoid scratching the surface of the enclosure (Fig. 4).

5.Screw the knobs through the holes in the mounting bracket and into the speaker, using the unthreaded ends of the knob screws as guides to find the screw-holes on the speakers. Angle the speaker at the desired position. Tighten the knobs snugly, but do not over-tighten them.

CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS

Turn your receiver/amplifier OFF before connecting speakers. This will avoid damage which could result from accidental shorting of speaker cables.

Your Stylus® speakers are equipped with high-quality binding posts that can be used with banana, pin or spade connectors, as well as with bare wire.

Connecting All Models (except those with ‘SM’ in their name, see below) (Fig. 5a)

Connect one speaker at a time to your amplifier.

Connect the red (+) amplifier terminal to the red (+) speaker terminal and the black (-) amplifier terminal to the black (-) speaker terminal. Tighten the posts firmly by hand, but don’t over-tighten them.

Repeat entire procedure for other speaker.

Connecting ‘SM’ Models

Stereo Input (Single Speaker, “left plus right” channel sound) (Fig. 5b)

Connect one speaker channel at a time to your receiver/amplifier.

Slide the switch on the back of the speaker all the way over to the ‘Stereo’ position.

Connect the Right red (+) amplifier terminal to the Right red (+) speaker terminal and the Right black (-) amplifier terminal to the Right black (-) speaker terminal. Connect the Left red (+) amplifier terminal to the Left red (+) speaker terminal and the Left black (-) amplifier terminal to the Left black (-) speaker terminal.
