Wall Mounting Synchrony S Surrounds

Select and install wall-mounting brackets and hardware sufficient to hold 
the weight of the speakers on the walls safely.

1. Use the “3 finger” style flush mount bracket (provided in Owner's 

Manual Kit).

2. The speaker should be mounted at a minimum height of five feet 

measured from the bottom of the speaker to the ground.  The speaker 
can be mounted on the wall beside or behind the listener.  Screws 
with sufficient length and located to solidly enter wood are preferred.  
Metal anchors, which partially collapse inside the wall, provide greater 
holding power than individual screws. Screws into plastic (or metal) 
shield anchors in wallboard, tile, masonry, or concrete can provide 
great holding power.   Do not use the simple expanding type anchors 
in wallboard.  These are intended for use in masonry only.  If a 
fastener does not tighten securely, install another, larger fastener.

3. One of the brackets has already been installed on the cabinet. Install 

the other matching bracket, with the interlocking finger facing up, on 
the wall.  Ensure the bracket is level and aligned to the desired 
position and secure in place.  Use the appropriate screws/fasteners 
for the type and construction of the surface, taking into consideration 
the weight of the speaker.  

4. Wire the speaker before mounting on the wall.  Maintain electrical 

polarity throughout the system.  Use the following polarity indicators 
as applicable: red connects to: rib/+/print/copper wire and black to 
smooth/-/blank/silver wire.

5. Place the speaker against the mounting surface and slide down, 

interlocking the fingers of the brackets.

6. Carefully load test the installed speaker to ensure that it is secure and 

safe.

7.

THE INSTALLER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR A SAFE AND SECURE 
INSTALLATION.
