Introduction
Welcome to Vecta a new weatherproof lifestyle loudspeaker that is just at home outside in the elements
thanks to its IP55 rating as it is indoors in a bar, lounge area, swimming pool, sauna, the list is endless.
We have used our highly acclaimed C-CAM technology to develop the 2 bass units and tweeters to give
any environment the Monitor Audio sound.
The flexibility doesn’t just end with the environments it can be used in, but also how it is fitted. There are
3 bracket options and 8 configurations available: Single corner mounting (wall or eaves), two back to back
on a wall using two of the corner brackets, square on to the wall, angled off the wall using the wedge and
standard bracket and from the ceiling using a pole and the cluster mount.

Angled Wedge
The wedge has a 32.5 degree angle to it and is used in conjunction with the V-MOUNT to angle the
loudspeaker off the wall when corner mounting (using the V-CORNER) or square to the wall is not suitable.
The combination of the wedge and angular adjustment of the speaker will allow up to 45 degrees of
adjustment. Like the V-MOUNT it can be used in both horizontal and vertical configurations.
Fixings are not supplied to secure the wedge to the wall. Only to secure the V-MOUNT to the wedge.

V-CORNER
Single V-CORNER mounts can be used to fit the loudspeakers vertically into the corner of the walls or
horizontally in the corner of a wall and ceiling. It is also strong enough to just mount one side of the
bracket to an open sided wall or post. Feed the cable through any one of the three through holes and
using bare wire clamp the cable in place in the sprung, push down terminals.
Cable Through Hole.
Feed cable through and
around into terminals.
Wall Fixing Points.
3 on each side.
Use appropriate fixings
and screws for the wall it is
being fixed to.
NOTE: If the wall is a long
way off square, using one
side of the bracket to fix it
to the wall will still hold the
loudspeaker sufficiently.
Loudspeaker Terminals.
Push down on the terminals
to clamp the cable in place.
Loudspeaker Fixing Bolt.
Secured from below, this
fixes the loudspeaker to
the bracket. There is a
guide in the back of the
loudspeaker to help locate
the screwdriver in the bolt.
The bolt has a longer shaft
to aid installation.

Loudspeaker Mounting Arm.
The is the arm the
loudspeaker will sit on.

V-CORNER Back to back
It is possible to mount a pair of V240’s next to each other using
2 corner brackets. This will give almost 180 degrees of sound
dispersion. If mounting them in this configuration, fix one side of the
first bracket to the wall. Align the second bracket to the first and
mark its fixing points. It might be beneficial to hold them together
with a small nut and bolt or cable tie (neither supplied). once fixing
points have been drilled, use the appropriate fixings and secure the
second bracket to the wall.
Fitting the Loudspeaker
Once the correct bracket has been fitted, the loudspeaker can then be mounted onto it.
Attaching it is simple, just align the bracket arm with the mounting location on the loudspeaker and slot it
into place. Once in place, the loudspeaker fixing bolt must be tightened to hold the loudspeaker securely
in place. There is a small recess in the back of the loudspeaker to align the screwdriver with the bolt.
The same method of fixing applies to all brackets.
Screwdriver Guide
This is to aid installation
and guide the screwdriver
to the fixing screw.
