Boston Acoustics Indoor / Outdoor Speaker - Manual (Page 2)

Description
The Boston Acoustics® SoundWare is truly a go everywhere, do everything speaker. All of its parts
are weather resistant so they’re at home indoors and out, in situations from outdoor entertainment
to home theater. Compact size and a fl exible mounting system give you many options for installation
locations. You can just set them on a shelf or use the supplied brackets and mount them in a corner
or on a fl at wall. The pivoting mounts let you tilt and swivel the speakers to suit the installation. If one
of the available colors doesn’t work in your décor, then SoundWare can be painted in a matching or
complementary color. SoundWare – Great Sound Anywhere.

Placement Options
The SoundWare speaker can be wall mounted using the supplied hardware or simply placed on a
shelf. If it is being placed on a shelf you can simply attach the adhesive-backed rubber feet and
connect the speaker wires.
Attaching the Pivoting Ball Mount
If you plan to use the mounting brackets you must attach
the pivoting ball mount to the speaker. Use the four sup-
plied fl at-head machine screws as shown in the illustration.
Mounting the Wall Bracket
Brackets for mounting the speakers on a fl at wall or in a
corner are supplied. One thing that is not supplied is hard-
ware to attach the bracket to the wall. Why? Because there
are so many diff erent kinds of surfaces on which the speakers could
be mounted. It could be basic drywall which may or may not have a
stud behind it. It could be a wood panel or even a concrete foundation
wall. There is no one type of fastener that we could supply that would
work in all the possible situations. So taking into account the surface the speaker is being mounted
on, acquire the appropriate type of fasteners. You’ll need four for each speaker. If you’re not sure what
type of fastener to use, take the mounting bracket to a friendly hardware store, tell them about the
wall you’re mounting the speaker on, and ask them to recommend an appropriate fastener. Keep in
mind the weight of the speaker.
