3. There is a threaded brass insert (1/4" – 20) on the back of the OS loudspeaker for
attaching a custom bracket (See Figure 7). This allows you to position the
loudspeaker at unusual angles or varying distances from the mounting surface.
Safety First!
Be careful to use hardware that is designed for the surface you are mounting to. The
OS 5.3Si loudspeaker (including bracket) weighs 9 pounds. The OS 6.3Si
loudspeaker (including bracket) weighs 11 pounds. If you are not sure of a safe
way to mount the loudspeakers, consult a professional installer or a building
contractor.
You will maximize the useful life of the loudspeaker, by placing the loudspeaker so
that it receives less exposure to the elements. Look for the best overall compromise
between sound quality, convenience, and exposure. Do not compromise safety.
