You will need to obtain four screws (not included) to mount each bracket to your 
vertical surface. The screws should have a shaft diameter no larger than 4mm and a 
head diameter of 5-6mm. 

3.

 

If necessary, drill pilot holes for the mounting screws using a drill bit of the 
appropriate size. Attach each bracket to the wall using the screws mentioned in the 
previous step. 
Note that, due to the space between the back of the speaker and the wall when 
the speakers are attached to the brackets, they will be attached after the wire 
connections have been made. 

 

WIRING THE SPEAKERS 

1.

 

Power off and unplug your amplifier from its power source. 

2.

 

Using a Philips screwdriver, remove the terminal cover plate from the rear of the 
subwoofer. 

3.

 

Prepare wires for each satellite speaker to the subwoofer and from the amplifier to 
the subwoofer using the procedures mentioned in the 

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS 

section above. For best results, use pin plugs for the ends that will connect to the 
satellite speakers and spade terminals for the ends that will connect to the 
subwoofer. Your amplifier's speaker terminals will determine the appropriate plug or 
terminal to use for that end. If any of these wires will be routed through the walls, 
route them before attaching the terminals. 
Note that if any of these wires 
will be run through the walls, 
you must use in-wall rated 
speaker wire. Using unrated or 
improperly rated wires can risk 
the spread of fire and nullify 
insurance claims.

For each satellite speaker, 
connect one end of the prepared
