MOUNTING OPTIONS

Satellites and Surrounds

The satellite speakers may be placed on

a shelf.

They may be wall- mounted using the supplied brackets.

Wall-Mounting

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.

Wall Plate

Mount the wall- bracket attachment plate on the wall in the desired loca-

tion. 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 instruc- tions on pages 9 through 12, thread the appropriate speaker cable through the open- ing in the bottom of the wall 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 insert- ing the tab at the top of the wall plate into the slot on top of the bracket and snapping the bracket onto the wall 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 9). Place the terminal cover over the opening on the underside of the speaker so that it fits flush against the speaker and covers the ter- minals, with its round opening exposing the threaded insert. The bracket fits through the round opening in the terminal cover.

Wall Plate

Insert the supplied bracket bolt up through the bottom of the bracket and terminal cover, and screw it into the threaded insert on the underside 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 be tilted up or down, and attempting to tilt it will damage the bracket and possibly the wall, which would not be covered by your warranty.
