Mounting the front and surround
speakers
You can place the front and surround speakers (and
surround back speaker in an NS-P246 system) on a
shelf or rack, set them on the floor, or mount them
on a wall or speaker stand.
To mount the speakers on a wall:
1.
Affix screws to a firm wall or wall support as
shown below. (Use tapping screws 3.5 to 4mm
in diameter.)
2.
Suspend the speaker by mounting the holes in
the speaker’s back panels on the protruding
screws.
Cautions:
•
Each front or surround speaker weighs 0.9 kg
(2.0 lbs.). Do not mount the speakers on thin plywood
or on a wall made of soft surface material. Otherwise,
the screws may pull out of the surface and the speak-
ers may fall, possibly damaging the speakers or caus-
ing personal injury.
•
Do not affix the speakers to a wall using nails, adhe-
sives, or unstable hardware. Long term use and vibra-
tion may cause the speakers to fall.
•
To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose
speaker cables, affix the cables to the wall.
•
Mount the speakers in a wall location that will be
unlikely to result in injury to an individual’s head.
To attach to a bracket:
1.
Attach a bracket (part number AAX34790) to
the bottom of the speaker using a screw (part
number AAX12390) such that the convex part
of the bracket fits over the groove in the bottom
of the speaker, as shown below.
2.
Mount the speaker on the speaker stand by affix-
ing a pair of screws through the outside bracket
holes.
To mount the speakers on a speaker
stand:
You can mount the front, surround, and surround
back speakers on a speaker stand, such as the
optional Yamaha SPS-80. (For more information,
refer to the instruction manual for the SPS-80.)
Note:
The SPS-80 may be unavailable in certain
regions.
