Please read the instructions prior to installation. This
speaker mount is designed solely for the mounting of
small speakers weighing less than 8lbs. We are not
responsible for damage that may occur if speakers
weighing more than 8lbs. are used.

the included hardware does not fit with the application,
the appropriate hardware will have to be purchased.
