1.  Decide on locations for the speakers according to the recommendations 

in 

Placing the Speakers

, on page 3.

2.  Select wall-hanging hardware that is appropriate for the construction 

and materials of your walls. The Cinema 500 front, center and surround 

speakers weigh 3.25 lb (1.47kg) each. Be sure to use hardware that can 

support their weight.

 

3.  Install the wall-hanging hardware on the walls. Make sure that the
