4. Determine the Loudspeaker Mounting Location 

on the wall, making sure the Mounting Bracket 

will be anchored to a stud located inside the wall.

Note: Use extreme caution to avoid any existing 

electrical wiring, plumbing, etc., located 

inside the wall.

5. Refer to figures 11 thru 16 to install the appro-

priate Wall Bracket on the wall 

(orient the bracket as illustrated) 

using the supplied Mounting 

Screws. If the Flush Mount 

Bracket is used, attach the two 

cone shaped rubber bumpers to 

the rear of the Loudspeaker, near 

the bottom.

Note: If the wall covering mate-

rial and/or thickness is dif-

ferent from the illustration, 

the two supplied Mounting 

Screws need to be replaced 

with screws of the appro-

priate type and length.

6. Orient the Loudspeaker to line up with the Wall 

Brackets and attach them together. If the angle 

mount is used, install the Locking Screw to secure 

the Loudspeaker at the desired angle.

7. Optionally, attach the supplied McIntosh Logo to 

the Front of the XCS200 Loudspeaker Grille using 

the two spring clips.

8. Align the Grille fasteners to the Loudspeaker 

Grommets (four on each side). Carefully push 

down to secure the Grille to the Loudspeaker.

9. Proceed to “Room Acoustics and Loudspeaker 

Placement” on page 10.

Note: Retain the three removed screws and Stabi-

lizer Bar for possible future use.

3. Attach either the flush mount or angle mount 

brackets to the rear of the Loudspeaker. Refer to 

the chart below, along with figures 5 and 7 for the 

screw location. Also, be sure to orient the bracket 

as illustrated in figures 8, 9 and 10.

Note: The Angled Bracket is only for vertical 

mounting of the XCS200 Loudspeaker.

1. Carefully remove the Grille from the Front of the 

Loudspeaker by lifting it up at the edges and place 

it in a safe place.

2. Using an appropriate tool, remove the three 

screws securing the Stabilizer Bar to the back of 

the XCS200. Refer to figure 6. Replace the just 

removed screws with the supplied Stabilizer Bar 

Replacement Screws as indicated as Location-R. 

Refer to figures 5 and 7.

The supplied On Wall Mounting Brackets allow for 

three different mounting positions of the XCS200 

Loudspeaker relative to the wall, both vertical and 

horizontal. Two positions are flush mount, with the 

Loudspeaker close to and parallel with the wall. The 

other position is angle mount, which places the Loud-

speaker further away from the wall and allows for 

rotation of ± 30 Degrees. Refer to figure 5.
