MOUNTING OPTIONS
MOUNTING OPTIONS
The satellite speakers may
be wall-mounted using the
supplied brackets.
Satellites and Surrounds
The satellite speakers may be
placed on a shelf. Place each satel-
lite speaker on one of the supplied
coasters for added stability and to
protect your furniture.
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.
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
25 pounds.
The customer is responsible for
proper selection and use of mounting hard-
ware, 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 above. 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 inserting
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
terminals, with its round opening exposing
the threaded insert. The bracket fits through
the round opening in the terminal cover.
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.
