Read the details on page 6 to help

determine the best position for your

loudspeakers.

Tools required:

Phillips screwdriver

Pencil or other marker

Electric drill and 5/16" drill bit

Level

Safety glasses

Step ladder if needed

Electronic stud finder if needed

Preliminary steps:

Clear the area where you are going

to work, so it will be safe.

Make sure there is no wiring, or

gas or water pipes behind the wall

where you are going to drill!

If you have to mount the bracket

onto a masonry wall, we recom-

mend that you consult with your

hardware supplier to buy suitable

masonry hardware. The loud-

speaker weighs 8 lb (3.6 kg), but

you should allow a good safety

margin. If in doubt, please contact

your Sunfire dealer for professional

installation.

Mounting onto sheetrock

1. Choose the best location for your

CRM-BIP loudspeakers.

. Hold the wall mount template onto

the wall surface. Use a level to

make sure that the two holes are

horizontal.

Installation

3. Mark the wall with a pencil in the

location of the two holes, and

remove the template.

4. Put on your safety glasses. With

a 5/16" drill bit, drill two holes into

the marked positions on the wall.

Remove any dust or particles.

5. Press a dry wall anchor into each

hole, and gently tap them in flush.

6. Tighten the screws by hand, until

the heads are sticking out approxi-

mately 1/8".

7. Connect your speaker wires to the

back of the loudspeakers, making

sure of the correct polarity. Gently

pull on the wires to make sure of a

good connection. Secure the wires

so their weight is not pulling against

the terminals.

8. To reduce the chance of the loud-

speaker vibrating against the wall,

place the supplied anti-vibration

pads in four locations on the rear

panel.

9. Hold the loudspeaker in place, so

the keyholes in the rear of the loud-

speaker line up with the screws on

the wall. Make sure that the screw-

heads are securely in the keyholes.

If the loudspeaker feels loose, drive

the screws in further and remount

the loudspeaker.

10. Enjoy your new loudspeaker. See

page 8 regarding the break-in pe-

riod required before the loudspeak-

ers will sound their best.
