The FS6 can be mounted on a surface, such as a wall or mounted in a bookcase or under a shelf.
Mounting on a desk top or bookshelf
1. For quick installation on a desk top or bookshelf, simply place on a desk, shelf or other flat surface as desired.
2. Route the speaker wire to the speakers.
3. Strip the ends of the wire approximately 5/8 inch (15 mm) and twist the bared strands.
4. Insert the wire into the speaker terminals, observing the correct polarity (+wire to +terminal and -wire to -terminal).
Mounting on a wall, ceiling or other flat surface
1. If mounting to drywall, use a stud locator to find the studs in the wall.
2. Mark the location of the mounting bracket’s ➀two mounting holes on
the stud line and drill pilot holes.
3. Place the mounting bracket ➀against the wall, aligning the screw
holes with the pilot holes in the wall and secure it with two screws
(not included).
4. If they are attached to the speakers, remove the circular end caps ➁
from the top and bottom of the speakers ➂by rotating them
counter-clockwise.
5. Gently slide the speaker ➂into the mounting bracket ➀and secure
it by replacing the circular end caps ➁through the mounting bracket
and into the top and bottom of the speaker, rotating them clockwise until
fully seated.
6. Route the speaker wire to the speakers.
7. Strip the ends of the wire approximately 5/8 inch (15 mm) and twist the
bared strands.
8. Insert the wire into the speaker terminals, observing the correct polarity

NOTE: Before starting installation, ensure the wall and wall material is
capable of supporting the combined weight of the speakers and the wall
mount assemblies.
