3.0 initial speaker placement

You can also achieve excellent results in the rear position. Try not to place the speakers directly into a corner. Leave 2 or more feet between the edge of the cabinet and the sidewall, so the sound can reflect into the room environment. The rear position is usually chosen when your room will not accommodate the sidewall position due to unequal walls, a doorway, or a large opening, etc. It is recommended that the rear center (6.1 system) or dual rear surrounds (7.1) be placed at the same height as the other two rear surround speakers wherever possible.

MOUNTING YOUR OMD-R SPEAKERS

NOTE: THE OMD-R FEATURES A VERY SIMPLE WALL MOUNTING SYSTEM. CAREFUL ATTENTION MUST BE MADE TO MOUNT IT SECURELY AS THE SPEAKER IS HEAVY AND DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT AND/OR INJURY COULD RESULT FROM IMPROPER MOUNTING. PLEASE FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY!

NOTE: THE MOUNTING HARDWARE FOR THE OMD-R CAN BE FOUND ON TOP OF ONE OF THE PROTECTIVE FOAM PIECES INSIDE THE SHIPPING CARTON. THEY ARE TAPED INTO ONE CORNER, AND SHOULD BE VISIBLE WHEN YOU OPEN THE OMD-R PACKAGING.

1.Select the mounting position best suited for your room.

2.Place the wall-mounting bracket against the wall in the desired mounting location and mark the center of the two holes with a pencil. This is where you need to insert the appropriate mounting hardware to securely fasten a load of 22 lbs. Hardware is not included with the speaker, as building materials vary greatly in different countries, but the recommended screw head size is a #8. Screw length is to be determined by the wall material.

3.If you are mounting directly to drywall, please ensure that you use the appropriate anchors, as screws into drywall itself will not provide a secure mount. Insert the anchors, and then hold the mounting bracket up to the wall. Insert the screws until tight. Try to locate into wall studs wherever possible.

4.Screw the included bolt into the insert in the back of the OMD-R speaker, located above the terminal cup. Hand tighten the bolt all the way, and then loosen a few turns counter clockwise. Place the two included rubber bumpers on the back of the speaker, on either side of the back label.

5.Hold the speaker upright, and insert the bolt head into the large hole. Let the speaker slide down into place.
