• Line up the bracket, attached to the speak-
er, so that the screw heads pass through
the large center hole of the bracket’s key-
hole slots.
• Let the speaker and bracket slide straight
down, allowing the screw head to slip
behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot
[figure 16].
• Tug gently on the speaker to make certain
that the screws and bracket are properly
aligned and that the wall anchors are
secure.
• If the bracket is not held snug against
the wall by the screw heads, remove the
speaker from the wall, drive the screws
in a little further and then remount
the speaker.

• Once the speaker is mounted, the bracket
knobs can be loosened to “aim” the speak-
er, and then hand-tightened to keep the
speaker angled correctly [figure 17].
• Follow the speaker pair hookup directions
on the previous page.
SAFETY FIRST
When installing Atrium speakers be aware of
the weight of your particular model (Atrium
45P=approx [8lbs/3.63kg powered]
[6lbs/2.72kg passive]) and the weight bearing
tolerance of the material to which you are
mounting the speaker. If you are not sure of a
safe way of mounting your speakers please
consult a professional installer, your autho-
rized Polk Audio dealer, or a building contrac-
tor. Do not compromise safety.
• Prior to installation, hold the speaker in the
chosen location to make sure it safely
clears obstacles such as ceiling, adjacent
walls, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and
door/window frames.
• Using the keyhole slots in the bracket as a
template, mark the installation location of
the two keyhole slots with a pencil. You can
do this by removing the bracket knobs on
the top and bottom of the speaker and
removing the bracket, or by leaving the
bracket connected to the speaker [figure
13]. Orient the bracket so that the small
ends of the keyhole slots are facing “up”
according to the direction of installation.
Reattach the bracket to the speakers, if you
have removed it, by reinserting it into the
bracket gap and then tightening the bracket
knobs.
• If you are certain that there is a stud
behind the wall surface, drive #10 screws
(not included) through the wall and into the
stud [figure 14a].
• If there is no stud behind the wall at the
chosen location, install #10 (M4.5) wall
anchors (not supplied) into the wall by fol-
lowing the wall-anchor-manufacturer's
instructions [figure 14b].
• For masonry walls, use a masonry drill
bit and #10 masonry anchor and screw
(not included).
• Drive screws into stud or wall anchors,
leaving screw heads protruding 1/16"
(1.6mm).
• If speaker wire is being fed from a hole in
the wall behind the bracket, pull this
speaker wire through the hole in the brack-
et before mounting the bracket [figure 15].
