Wall Mounting
The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the key- hole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating against the wall, attach two of the supplied thick rubber stoppers to the rear of each speaker.
To mount the front or surround speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that’s securely screwed into the wall.
•Leave a gap of between 3/16" (5 mm) and 7/16" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown. (We recommend that you con- sult a home installation profes- sional.)

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" (9 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hol- low walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.
Using the Rubber Stoppers for a More Stable Platform
We recommend using the provided rubber stoppers to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, provid- ing a more stable platform. Use thick stoppers for the cen- ter speaker, and thin stoppers for the other speakers.

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 sup- plied pads underneath the subwoofer’s feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.
