Stand Mounting
If you’re placing your AV123 x-ls monitors speakers on stands, you
have several options:
• Ideally, you would use the threaded inserts in the bottom of the
speaker cabinet as a way to secure the x-ls monitor to the stand
using the appropriate hardware. This approach would be the most
secure as far as traffic and routine house cleaning is concerned
because the speaker and the stand become one. The companion
stands to the AV123 x-ls monitors have holes that align to the
threaded inserts in the speaker cabinet. These stands are also
available from AV123.
• You can use the rubber feet on a generic speaker stand that does
not have mounting holes, but this may be risky if there is a chance
the speaker or stand may be bumped and the speaker knocked off.
• You can use a material like BluTack to keep your speakers firmly (but not permanently)
attached to the stands. If you can’t find BluTack, just ask your neighborhood hardware
store for the generic equivalent or some “earthquake wax.”
• We do not recommend the use of double sided foam tape or other strong adhesives to
secure your speakers to a stand, as they will damage the furniture grade finish if and
when removed.
No matter how you mount your speakers to the stands, make sure you follow the
instructions supplied with the stands and try to keep stand mounted speakers out of
the major traffic paths in your room just as you would with floor standing speakers. The
thread size of the insert in the bottom of the x-ls monitors is M8 x 1.25”.
Wall Mounting
Wall mounting is also an option, The plate that allows
stand mounting of the x-ls monitor can also be purchased
separately for wall mounting applications. Other wall mount
bracket companies we like are Vogel (www.vogelsusa.
com), Haropa (www.haropa.com) and OmniMount (www.
omnimount.com). When you shop for brackets you’ll find
different models which allow you to mount to a wall, ceiling,
or cabinet top, allowing for a great deal of flexibility.
Whatever brackets you choose, make sure they support the
full weight of the speaker (even a little over) and meet your expectations aesthetically.
Follow the bracket manufacturer’s instructions carefully as you attach it to the wall.
You should mount into the studs in the wall themselves as a first option. If this is not
possible, a 50 lb. dry wall anchor should also be suitable. Extra effort here is well worth
it. An inadvertent fall will damage your speaker as well as anything under it! If you’re in
doubt about how best to do this, please call a qualified carpenter or contractor to
help .
Speaker Stands for the
AV123 x-ls Monitors
are available from
AV123
An alternative to drilling holes in
the x-ls for wall mounting is to
purchase the “LaunchPad” plate.
You can attach a mount to this plate
instead of the speaker! It’s shaped
like the base of the x-ls, 1” thick
and satin black. Using the supplied
hardware, you bolt this plate to the
threaded insert on the x-ls speaker.
If you use an Omnimount 30.0
‘WB’ style mount, you can attach
the mount to this plate. No drilling
into the cabinets! Visit www.av123.

modification.
