Attaching the Grilles

The included metal grilles are held to the front of the enclosures with pow- erful neodymium magnets. There are depressions on the back of the grille that the magnets fit into.Once the speakers are in their final position.Posi- tion the grille over the magnets on the baffle. (See Figure 1) Move them together slowly and when you get close enough, the magnets will draw the grille in and hold it tight. Be careful not to get your fingers caught between the grille and the cabinet.

NOTE: You will notice a threaded insert onthe back of the LR satel- lites and SR surrounds. This is for bolting the satellites to speaker stands that utilize a slotted L-bracket. Use a ¼” x 20 bolt to secure the speaker to the stand.
