Connecting Your Speakers —Continued
The center speaker base is for mounting the center
speaker horizontally. If you put it on a TV stand or AV
stand, aim it toward the listening position. The center
speaker should sit securely on the base. If it’s loose, try
resetting it.
The cradle surface of the base features two stoppers to
prevent the speaker from moving. Therefore, you can tilt
the speaker toward the front by up to 11 degrees.
■ Using the included rubber spacers
We recommend using the supplied rubber spacers to
achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The
rubber spacers prevent the speakers from moving, pro-
viding a more stable setup.
If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor (wood, vinyl,
tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer's feet
may damage the flooring.
To prevent this, place the sup-
plied pads underneath the sub-
woofer's feet. The pads also
provide a stable base for the
subwoofer.
The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the
keyhole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating
against the wall, attach four of the supplied spacers to the
keyhole fins on the rear of each speaker.
■ Mounting vertically
To mount the front speakers vertically, use the keyhole
slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that’s
securely screwed into the wall.
■
Mounting horizontally
To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two
keyhole slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws
that are securely screwed into the wall.
Caution:
A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends
on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow
walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are
no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.
Use screws with a head diameter of 3/8" or less and a
shank diameter of 1/8" or less. With hollow walls, use a
cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or
water pipes before making any holes.
Leave a gap of between 1/4"
and 5/16" between the wall
and the base of the screw
head, as shown.
(We recommend that you con-
sult a home installation pro-
fessional.)
