Mounting Options for Satellite and Center Speakers
Wall-Mounting the BDS 800 Center Speaker
Decide on the location for the speaker (see 1. Placing the Speakers (BDS 800, BDS 700, BDS
400 and BDS 300 Systems), on page 10).
Attach the center-speaker wall-mount bracket to the wall using hardware that is 2.
appropriate for the wall’s construction and materials. Attach the anchors through the
holes shown in the illustration.
Use These Holes to Attach

NOTE: The center speaker weighs 3.2 lb (1.45kg). Be sure to use hardware that can support
this weight.
CAUTION: Before making speaker connections, be sure that your receiver or
amplifier is turned OFF and, preferably, its AC cord is unplugged from the AC
power source.

Determine the locations for the speakers. (See 2. Placing the Speakers (BDS 800, BDS
700, BDS 400 and BDS 300), on page 10, for more information.) If possible, position
the speakers so that the mounting screws (not included; use size #8) can be installed
directly into a wall stud. If that is not possible, use optional wall anchors that are rated
to support at least 25 lb (11.3kg) and are appropriate for the construction and materials
of your wall. The customer is responsible for the proper selection and use of
mounting hardware, available through hardware stores, to wall-mount the
speakers properly and safely.
Bring the speaker cable through the wall-bracket attachment plate, and mount the 3.
attachment plate on the wall in the desired location.
Bring Speaker Cable Through Opening
Thread the speaker cable through the arc-shaped opening on the top of the mounting 4.
bracket, not the screw hole.

Fit the terminal cover into the opening on the underside of the speaker so that it is flush 7.
against the speaker and covers the terminals. Insert the supplied long 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 speaker from pivoting on the bracket.
