Figure 4. Mounting the Adapter
If not using the adapter, position the mounting plate against the wall. The #26 arrow
molded into the mounting plate indicates the vertical midpoint of the SM 26 speaker
when it is mounted on a wall stud. While positioning the mounting plate on the wall,
mark the location of two pilot holes using the holes indicated below.

Figure 5. Positioning the Mounting Plate
NOTE: A speaker wire access hole (see the figure in step 6) must also be cut in
the wall, so mark that hole location now with the mounting plate positioned on
the wall while ensuring that the wall stud does not interfere with the wire routing
and that the mounting plate hides the access hole.
3. Drill the mounting plate pilot holes and cut the speaker wire access hole, as previously
marked.
4. Install the speaker cables into the wall before installing the speaker mounting plate.
Leave enough slack in the cable.
