Mounting the speakers 

6.1 Wall mounting the speakers 

Both the Opalum FLOW, BREEZE and STREAM series speakers are wall-mountable. (STREAM 
series speakers can also be standing tabletop). For optimum sound performance we recommend 
to mount the speaker at such height that the middle of the speaker is at about the height of the 
listener's ears. Therefore, if the listeners are sitting down most of the time when the speakers are 
used, the speakers should not be mounted too high. 
 
NOTE: 

Wall mounting hardware must be well able to handle the weight of the speaker. Use 
appropriate mounting hardware depending on wall material, e.g. use screws with 
plastic plugs for concrete walls and special drywall plugs or equivalent for gypsum 
walls. It is important to adjust both wall mounting screws for a tight fit against the wall. 
Inappropriate mounting may lead to noise produced by vibration or even damage to 
the products. 

 
For speaker weights please go to www.opalum.com

 

 

FLOW speakers with acrylic front only: 

NOTE: 

Do not remove the front protection film until speaker is mounted. This will help the 
acrylic glass to stay free from scratches and fingerprints.

 

 

STREAM series only: 

NOTE: 

To wall-mount the STREAM series speakers the feet must first be removed. This is 
done by unscrewing the two screws at the bottom of the speaker. Before wall-
mounting the speakers please attach the included rubber bumpers to the back of the 
speaker with one bumper in each corner. 

 

6.2 Speakers standing tabletop (STREAM series only) 

To use the STREAM series speakers standing tabletop the included feet must be mounted (as 
when the speakers were delivered). Please make sure that the feet are tightly secured to the 
bottom of the speakers if the feet have previously been removed.
