Figure 8. The OS loudspeakers can be mounted three ways
MOUNTING METhOdS (CONTINUED)
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. We recommend using attachment methods capable of supporting ten times the
weight of the loudspeaker and bracket. If you are not sure of a safe way to mount a loudspeaker,
consult a professional installer or a building contractor.
Some local building codes require the use of an additional safety cable to mount loudspeakers on a
wall. If so, the 1/4”-20 threaded insert on the rear of the enclosure can be utilized for securing the
safety cable to the enclosure. Construction of the safety cable and attachment of the cable to the
wall need to meet the local building codes.
If you are not sure of a safe way to mount the loudspeakers or are unsure of your local building
codes, consult a professional installer or a building contractor for the proper installation techniques
and requirements.
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.
