Wall or Ceiling Mounting Your VR-MX Speakers
The VR-MX is designed to be mounted directly onto a wall or ceiling. First attach the eight supplied
self-adhesive felt pads, one on the back of each corner of both speakers. Then attach the bracket to
the wall or ceiling and slide the speaker on to the bracket as shown below and on the next page.
You may run wires to the speakers on the wall surface or behind the wall. Use the recessed area on
the back of the speaker to accommodate the wire slack.
Mounting on drywall, paneling or other hollow surfaces:
Use the 6-32 x 2" machine screws and
toggle wings provided. The toggle wings require a
1
⁄
2
" (12mm) hole.
Mounting on wood and other solid surfaces:
Use a #6 or #8 wood screw.
Mounting on masonry, adobe and similar surfaces:
Consult a knowledgeable installer about
proper hardware. You will obtain best results with #6 or #8 wood screws.
IMPORTANT:
Your speakers have been packed as a DIRECT or DIFFUSE mirror imaged matched
set. Make sure that each speaker is mounted on the appropriate side to yield the desired surround
effect (see “Direct vs. Diffuse Sound Pattern” on pages 2 and 3). The arrows on the back of each
speaker indicate the DIRECT or DIFFUSE radiation pattern (see label picture on page 5).
