JBL CS 360 Xcite - Manual (Page 6)

6 6
The CS360 satellites and center channel are designed
to be mounted on the wall. There is a fixed-mount wall
bracket and an adjustable wall bracket provided for each
satellite and the center channel. Each speaker bracket will
require up to four 38 mm (1-1/2") #10 wood screws; each
screw should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is
unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for a 38 mm
(1-1/2") #10 screw.
NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selec-
tion and use of mounting hardware (available through
hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe
wall-mounting of the speakers.
Fixed-Mount Wall Bracket
Step 1. Mark the positions on the wall where you would
like to place the mounting screws.
Step 2. Attach the bracket to the wall using two screws
(not included).
Step 3. Remove the rubber ring on the bottom of the
satellite and hold the satellite or center channel speak-
er in the right position on the bracket.
Step 4. Attach the short Phillips screw into insert on
bottom of speaker and tighten.
Step 5. Attach speaker wire as shown on page 7.
NOTE: The fixed-mount wall bracket for the center
speaker is the one with the wide support plate. The
center speaker has to be mounted horizontally when
using the fixed-mount bracket. See image on page 4.
In order to attach this bracket, first detach the stand
and remote sensor that are fixed to the center speaker
from the factory. Simply loosen and remove the large
Phillips screw at the bottom of the stand. The remote
sensor and the stand come off as two separate items,
and you may now position the remote sensor freely, if
you decide to use it. The bracket should be attached to
the wall first, then the cables should be connected to
the speaker, and finally you can attach the speaker to
the bracket with the large Phillips screw from beneath.
Adjustable Wall Bracket
Step 1. Remove cap over threaded insert on rear of
speaker.
Step 2. Mark the positions on the wall where you would
like to place the mounting screws.
Step 3. Place bracket against the wall and fasten four
38 mm (1-1/2") #10 wood screws through the bracket’s
screw holes into the wall. If a wall stud is not available,
use an appropriate anchor.
Step 4. Unscrew round collar (C) from bracket (A).
Step 5. Screw the ball and shaft assembly (B) to the
short Phillips screw insert on the back of the satellite
or the center channel (do not use the bottom insert on
either speaker). Back out 1/2 of a turn and tighten the
nut against the speaker. If the ball and shaft assembly
is not backed out before tightening the nut, perform-
ing Step 8 below may dislodge the threaded insert
in the speaker housing and permanently damage the
speaker.
Step 6. Attach speaker wire as shown on page 7.
Step 7. Drop round collar (C) over ball and shaft assem-
bly (B) that is mounted to the speaker with the finished
side of the collar facing the rear of the speaker.
Step 8. Carefully push the ball straight into the socket
mounted on the wall, angle the speaker as desired and
tighten the collar using the enclosed metal bar.
