S30 Mounting Kit
To mount the S30 on a wall:
1. Determine wall locations for each pair
of left and right loudspeakers.
2. At each proposed site, use a stud
finder to locate the nearest studs,
which should be on 16-inch centers.
3. Tape the enclosed mounting template
to the wall between the studs, leaving
a minimum clearance of 3/4-inch
(19 mm) from the cabinet top to the
ceiling. Use a level to verify tilt is zero.
Be sure to account for any mouldings
when determining a minimum
clearance distance.
4. At each site, drill three 3/8-inch holes
(9.5 mm) at the designated locations
on the mounting template.
5. With utility knife, create a cutout for
speaker wire within the noted bound-
ary.
6. If the anchor has a washer, remove
and discard it.
7. At each site, hammer the anchor into
the wall with the screw in place.
8. Tighten each screw clockwise until the
anchor cinches down and the screw
will no longer turn.
9. With the screw driver, carefully back
out the screw 3/16-inch (5 mm) in
order to leave room for the brackets on
the speaker cabinet.
10. At each site, route the speaker wire
through the cutout and using correct
polarity, attach the ends to the termi-
nals on the rear of the loudspeakers.
11. Align the brackets on each cabinet
with the screws on the wall, as shown
in Figure 2 (next page). Slide each
cabinet securely down onto the screws.
12. Remove the tape and template.
Note:
For best performance, mount the S30s at least
18-inches (46 cm) away from the ceiling at an
optimum height of 15 degrees above the
prime listening position. See the Revel S30
Loudspeaker Owner's Manual for placement
instructions.
