CHAPTER 3: STELLA MOUNTING OPTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
When installing Meyer Sound loudspeakers, the following
precautions should always be observed:
■ All Meyer Sound products must be used in accordance
with local, state, federal, and industry regulations. It is
the owner's and user's responsibility to evaluate the reli-
ability of any rigging method for their application. Rigging
should only be carried out by experienced professionals.
■ Use mounting and rigging hardware that has been rated
to meet or exceed the weight being hung.
■ Use mounting hardware appropriate for the surface
where the loudspeaker will be installed.
■ Make sure bolts and eyebolts are tightened securely.
Meyer Sound recommends using Loctite
® on eyebolt
threads and safety cables.
■
Inspect rigging hardware regularly and immediately
replace worn or damaged components.
Using a Safety Cable with the Stella-4
Meyer Sound recommends attaching a safety cable to the
Stella-4 before installation. This ensures the loudspeaker will
not accidentally fall during installation, and it provides addi-
tional safeguards for the loudspeaker if for some reason its
mounting hardware fails.
A safety cable attachment is included with the Stella-4. The
attachment includes a metal loop, screw, and two washers
that screw into the back of the Stella-4. Once the safety
cable attachment is securely installed, a safety cable (not
included) can be attached to it.
MOUNTING THE STELLA-4
The Stella-4 can be mounted with the following bracketing
options:
■ The MMB bracket mounts the Stella-4 on a wall, ceiling,
or single-gang electrical back box. You can also use the
MMB to mount the Stella-4 with other third-party options
like the OmniMount 20.5 ST.
■ The MAMB adjustable bracket mounts the Stella-4 on a
wall, ceiling, or single-gang electrical back box. In addi-
tion, the MAMB allows the Stella-4's position to be
adjusted up to 45 degrees in any direction.
NOTE: Both the MMB and MAMB brackets
ship with grommets installed in the four corner
holes of the loudspeaker plates. These grommets
absorb vibrations between the mounting surface and
the Stella-4 loudspeaker and should not be removed.
