Various Mounting Methods
—Continued
Mounting horizontally
To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two
keyhole slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws
that are securely screwed into the wall.
Center speaker
Caution:
A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends
on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow
walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are
no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.
Use screws with a head diameter of 3/8 inch or less and
a shank diameter of 1/8 inch (or 4 mm) or less (No. 8 or
smaller). With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to
check for any power cables or water pipes before making
any holes.
(We recommend that you consult a home installation
professional.)
Optional Onkyo speaker stands (AS-240) are available
for the front left and right and surround left and right
speakers. To attach a speaker to a stand, align the mount-
ing holes in the stand with those on the speaker’s rear
panel, and secure by using four of the supplied fixing
screws.
Threaded inserts for 1/4-inch machine screws are pro-
vided on the rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with
commercially available speaker mounts and brackets.
Refer to the manual supplied with your mounts or brack-
ets for installation details.
Note:
The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker’s
threaded insert should be between 1/5 and 3/8 of an inch
long.
