Mounting the Bravo 20
Identify the Bracket
in its packing material, the Bravo 20’s
mounting bracket is fitted into the back
of the speaker. remove the tape that is
temporarily holding the bracket to the
speaker, and then pull the bracket away
from the back of the speaker. Determine
how the Bravo 20 is to be mounted to the
wall or ceiling. it can be mounted either
horizontally or vertically, either on an open
section of wall, or where two or three room
surfaces meet. refer to the illustration here to
determine what screw holes on the Bravo 20
bracket should be used for your application.
NOTE:
the large rectangular hole in the
middle of the bracket will fit a single gang
electrical outlet to route the speaker wire
through a conduit.
Mount the Bracket to the Wall
Decide where to mount bracket.
IMPORTANT: See “Ceiling Clearance” on page 6.
Determine what mounting holes in the bracket will be used.
mark the holes on the wall or ceiling using bracket as a template.
Drill the holes using the appropriate drill bit size to accommodate the mounting hardware that you plan to use (ie, 1⁄2-inch
diameter to clear the toggle bolts for hollow surfaces or small enough to allow self-tapping screws in a solid surface).
mount the bracket flat or into a corner as shown below. We recommend the use of four fasteners wherever possible. consult
a knowledgeable installer regarding the proper hardware to use on your wall.
strip the speaker wires ends, and feed the speaker wire through the appropriate bracket opening.
connect the wire to the speaker’s terminals, taking care to maintain speaker polarity. (see “How to connect Your speakers” on
page 2). Both the Bravo 20 and its bracket are symmetrical, so the speaker can be mounted with either its woofer or tweeter
on top. in general, bass performance will be enhanced with the woofer as close to as many room surfaces as possible.

Corner Mount Example
Corner Fillers
if the Bravo 20 is being mounted in a corner, then one or both of the supplied
corner fillers may be inserted into the slots on the back of the speaker. these
accessories will enhance the appearance of the installation by making it appear
that the back of Bravo 20 extends into the corner.
NOTE:
up to 16-gauge speaker wire will fit between the fillers and the corner.

Ceiling Clearance
if the Bravo 20 is to be mounted so that the
top or the side of the speaker will meet a flush
surface, either a wall (horizontally) or the ceiling
(vertically), then measure the exact distance
as shown here from that surface to the top or side
of the bracket.

Mount the Speaker to the Bracket
remove the speaker’s grille by grasping the back of the
cabinet in one hand, while gently pulling the grille away
with the other hand.
align the openings in the back of the speaker with the two
posts protruding from the bracket as shown below.
gently remove any slack in the speaker wire as you push
the speaker firmly onto the bracket.
attach the speaker to the bracket by inserting the
supplied screws through the holes in the front of the
speaker and into the bracket as shown below (do not
over-tighten the screws).
replace the grille on the speaker.
NOTE:
the Bravo 20 is not securely attached to its bracket
unless the screws are used.
