Connecting the Speakers—Continued

Wall Mounting

The speakers (center, surround, and surround back) can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots.

To mount the surround or surround back speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that’s securely screwed into the wall.

Caution:

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors. Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (8 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 5/32" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Leave a gap of between 7/32"	Wall
(5 mm) and 3/8" (10 mm)
between the wall and the base
of the screw head, as shown.

Using the Cork Stoppers for a More Stable Platform

We recommend using the provided cork stoppers to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The cork stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform. Use stoppers for the center speaker.

Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer

If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor (wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer’s feet may damage the flooring. To prevent this, place the supplied pads underneath the subwoofer’s feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.
