mounting the speakersBefore mounting the speakers in brackets, plan the mounting location and method very carefully.Follow the speaker placement guidelines described in the instruction manual and decide on themounting locations. If you plan to hide the speaker wires behind the mounting surface, route the wiresbefore you mount the brackets. See the following section for information on wiring.The suggested method for attaching the brackets to the mounting surface depends on the structureand material of the mounting surface. There are two typical situations. One is with the bracketsattached to a conventional wall constructed with masonry material or drywall over wood studs. Theother situation is with the brackets mounted to a wood structure or some other solid material. Whenthe speakers are mounted on masonry walls or drywall, use plastic screw anchors to strengthen theattachment to the wall. When the speakers are mounted to a solid panel the screw anchors will not beneeded. Driving the supplied stainless steel screws directly into the solid panel will provide a strongenough mounting.Set the bracket in the desired installation location. Be sure it is straight. Using the bracket as atemplate, mark the location of the two mounting screw holes. Set the bracket aside. If plastic anchorswill be used, drill the appropriate size holes for them. If only the self tapping screws are used, drill pilotholes with an 1/8" bit. Push the plastic screw anchors, if they are being used, into the holes drilled forthem. Drive the mounting screws through the bracket, into the holes, until they are firmly set.Connect the wire to the speaker, observing the correct polarity (see next section). Set the speaker inthe mounting bracket and secure it by inserting the provided threaded knob, tightening it once thespeaker is rotated to point in the desired direction.2
