Various Mounting Methods
—Continued
Mounting horizontally
To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two
keyhole slots shown below to hang it 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 (9.5 mm) 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.
Leave a gap of between 9/32"(7 mm) and 13/32"
(10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw
head, as shown.
(We recommend that you consult a home installation
professional.)
Threaded inserts for M5 machine screws (1/4-inch
screws for North American model) are provided on the
rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with commer-
cially available speaker mounts and brackets. Refer to
the manual supplied with your mounts or brackets 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 (5 mm and 9 mm).
