4.1 

Choosing the Best Location 

Before installing the speaker: 

 

Experiment by placing the speakers in different locations before finally 

deciding on the most suitable location 

 

Be sure that the wall type is appropriate for the mounting brackets, that is, 

either solid wood, bricks, concrete, hollow building blocks, or wood studs  

 

Check that the mounting location is free of obstructions, such as electrical 

piping, AC ducts or water lines, and so on 

4.2 

Installing the Speaker Wires 

To install the speaker, do the following: 

1.  Prepare the wires for the speaker: 

 

Cut the wires to similar lengths 

For achieving high quality sound 

 

Measure the length from each speaker to the receiver, and cut the 

wires accordingly, adding some access wire length to let you easily 

remove the speakers from the bracket without having to disconnect the 

input wires 

2.  Strip the ends of the wires to expose a length of approximately 3/8 inch.
