Connecting Your Speakers—Continued

Center Speaker Base

The center speaker base is for mounting the center speaker horizontally. If you put it on a TV stand or AV stand, aim it toward the listening position. The center speaker should sit securely on the base. If it’s loose, try resetting it.

The cradle surface of the base features two stoppers to prevent the speaker from moving. Therefore, you can tilt the speaker toward the front by up to 11 degrees.

Wall Mounting

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating against the wall, attach four of the supplied spacers to the keyhole fins on the rear of each speaker.

Mounting vertically

To mount the front 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 3/8" or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

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 sub-

woofer's feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the

subwoofer.

Leave a gap of between 1/4" and 5/16" between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(We recommend that you con- sult a home installation pro- fessional.)
