Mounting to a Wall
We recommend having this bar speaker
professionally mounted.
The included spacers should be used at your
discretion to extend the face of the bar speaker
farther from the wall. These are typically used when
mounting the bar speaker under a television, and
the face of the bar speaker needs to be ush with the
face of the television.
1. Use the Tape Measure to decide how high you’d
like to hang the bar speaker on the wall.
2. The bar speaker must be hung within 6 feet of an
AC power outlet for the attached AC power cable
to reach.
3. Use the Stud Finder to locate 2 parallel wooden
studs to screw the mounting brackets into.
4. Mark the wall at the center of the studs using the
Pencil.
5. Line the Level up on both of your marks to make
sure they are level. If they’re not, adjust the
marks as needed to make them level.
6. After you’ve double checked your markings, drill
through the top hole on both mounting brackets
directly into the marks you’ve made on the wall.
7. If you are using the brackets only and no spacers,
use the included short screws. If you are using
any of the spacers or combination of the spacers,
use the long screws.
8. Use the Level to level each of the hanging
brackets, then drill the second screw into the
bottom hole on both mounting brackets.
9. Slide the bar speaker onto the mounting
brackets, and make sure there is a rm and stable
connection before letting go of the bar speaker.
10. Finally, use the Level to conrm that the bar
speaker is level.
