Mounting Options

Wall-Mounting for Satellites

Unscrew the bolt that attaches the black shelf stand to the bottom of the speaker. Store the stand and bolt in a safe place in case they are needed for a future installation.

Remove

Stand

15mm or 1/2"

Wall Plate

Mount the wall-bracket attachment plate on the wall in the desired location.

If possible, position the speakers so that the mounting screws (not included; use size #8) may be installed directly into a wooden wall stud.

If that is not possible, use optional wall anchors that are rated to support at least twenty-five pounds. The customer is responsible for proper selection and use of mounting hardware, available through hardware stores, to properly and safely wall-mount the speakers.

Referring to the speaker connection instructions on pages 8 through 11, thread the appropriate speaker cable through the opening in the bottom of the attachment plate, and then through the back of the bracket as shown in the diagram.

The bracket has two openings on top: a round screw hole, and an arc-shaped opening in front of it. The speaker cable should be threaded through the arc-shaped opening, not the screw hole.

Attach the bracket to the wall plate by inserting the tab at the top of the attachment plate into the slot on top of the bracket and snapping the bracket onto the attachment plate.

Thread the cable through the round opening in the terminal cover, and then insert the speaker wires into the terminals on the underside of the speaker, remembering to observe the correct polarity (see page 8).

Place the terminal cover over the opening on the underside of the speaker so that it fits flush against the speaker and covers the terminals, with its round opening exposing the threaded insert. The bracket fits through the round open- ing in the terminal cover.

Wall Bracket

Insert the supplied bracket bolt up through the bottom of the bracket and terminal cover, and screw it into the threaded insert on the under- side of the speaker. The bolt should be snug, but not so tight as to prevent the bracket from pivoting.

The wall-mounted speaker may be pivoted from side to side; however, the bracket is not designed to tilt up or down, and attempting to tilt it will damage the bracket and possibly the wall, which would not be covered by your war- ranty.

Wall-Mounting for the Center Speaker

Remove the two black rubber patches from the bottom of the center speaker. Keep the patches in a safe place in case they are needed for a future installation.

The back of the bracket has two small round screw holes on each side, and a large opening for the cable.

Wires to

Speaker

Position the bracket in such a way that the large hole for the cable is in front of the hole in the wall that holds the cable. Thread the cable through the hole and fix the bracket on the wall.

The mounting screws (not included; use size #8) may be installed directly into a wooden wall stud. If that is not possible, use optional wall anchors that are rated to support at least twen- ty-five pounds. The customer is responsible for proper selection and use of mounting hardware, available through hardware stores, to properly and safely wall-mount the center.

Insert the appropriate center speaker wires into the terminals on the backside of the center, remembering to observe the correct polarity (see page 8). Place the center speaker on the wall- bracket and use the enclosed screws to fix the center speaker on the bracket from the bottom.
