The MC650HD may be wall mounted or placed horizontally

on a table top as a center-channel using the included

hardware. Matching floor and table-top stands are available

separately from Cambridge SoundWorks.

Hanging the speaker on the wall:

The MC650HD may be mounted either vertically or

horizontally using the supplied wall bracket. Method #1 is

recommended. Use Method #2 if there is insufficient

clearance for Method #1.

Method #1

– Use this method when mounting the speaker

vertically when you have at least 21" clearance above the

top of the wall mount bracket. Use this method whenever

mounting the speaker horizontally.

1.

Using the wall mount bracket as a guide, mark at least

four locations for mounting screws. It is best to use the

holes at the four outermost corners. If concealing the

wiring in the wall, position the bracket so that the wire

exits the wall through the large hole in the center of the

bracket. The wire should extend through the bracket

approximately 12". Drill a 1/4" diameter hole and install

wall anchors in each location. Refer to the instructions

in the Appendix for proper use of the Toggler brand

anchors included with this speaker.

2.

Attach the mounting bracket securely to the wall using

four #10 screws.

3.

Attach the wire to the speaker terminals. Slide the

speaker on the bracket from the top while guiding the

wire through the channel between the speaker and

bracket.

4.

Pull the speaker logo straight out to remove it. Use a

philips screwdriver to gently tighten the lock screw

concealed in the hole behind the logo to secure

speaker to the bracket. Do not over-tighten. It only

requires slight pressure! Pay attention to the wire

location so that the screw does not penetrate the

speaker wire. Install the logo so that the text is upright.
