Installation 

2.2 

PA Speaker installation 

The speaker mount can be installed vertically on a wall, 
flat post or support column; or can be mounted 
horizontally from a ceiling or rafter beam.   

 

 

Once the speaker location has been determined the 
Speaker Mounting Template may be used to mark the 
mounting surface.  When using the Speaker Mounting 
Template keep in mind that the speaker wire exit is toward 
the floor on a wall mounted installation, and toward the 
front of the speaker in a ceiling mounted installation. 

The Loudmouth

  speaker may be secured to a variety of 

surfaces, with each installation presenting unique 
requirements for mounting hardware.  With this in mind, 
mounting screws or hardware are not included with the 
Loudmouth

 

 
 

Guidelines for mounting the Loudmouth

 speaker: 

 

 The 

Loudmouth

 speaker can be safely mounted to concrete, metal or wood surfaces.  Other surfaces are 

possible provided they can support the weight of the speaker.  If mounting to a drywall or concrete surface 
the use of expansion anchors is recommended. 

 

Secure the speaker tightly to the mounting surface, using all 6 mounting holes if possible.  At high audio 
output levels the speaker can generate significant vibration and must be rigidly secured.  This is particularly 
critical with drywall surfaces, which are highly susceptible to vibration damage. 

 

Be sure the speaker wire exits cleanly from under the speaker mounting bracket through the wire exit 
tunnel provided. Pinching the speaker wires could cause a short that will destroy the Loudmouth

 receiver 

audio amplifier. 

 

Route the speaker wire closely against a wall or support 
beam.  Speaker wire hanging in free space is easily 
snagged and could be pulled from the Loudmouth

 

receiver or worse yet, pulled from the speaker itself 
causing permanent damage. 

 

1 inch long, #8 or #10 round-head screws should be 
used to mount the speaker.  Wood screws, sheet metal 
screws, machine screws with nuts, or drywall anchors 
and screws will all work well depending on your specific 
requirements.  Pan-head screws should not be used to 
prevent damage to the mounting bracket due to over-
tightening.
