Wall Mounting - Onkyo HT-S580 Instruction Manual

Connecting Your Speakers—Continued

Wall Mounting

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.
To mount the front or surround speakers vertically, use
the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw
that's securely screwed into the wall.

Surround speaker (SKM-330S)
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.

Keyhole slots for wall
mounting
5-7/8" (150 mm)
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 5/16" (9 mm) or less
and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) 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
5/16" (7 mm) and 7/16"
(10 mm) between the wall
and the base of the screw
head, as shown.
(We recommend that you
consult a home installa-
tion professional.)

Using Speaker Mounts/Brackets
Threaded inserts for machine screws are provided on the
rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with commer-
cially available speaker mounts or brackets. North
American models require 1/4-inch screws. Other models
require M5 (5 mm) screws. Refer to the manual supplied
with your mounts or brackets for installation details.
Note:
The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker's
threaded insert should be between 1/4" – 5/16" (5 mm –
8 mm) long.

Using Rubber Stoppers with the
Speakers
We recommend using the provided rubber stoppers to
achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The
rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, pro-
viding a more stable setup.
