Mounting
The baffle provides two methods of mounting:
1. The baffle can be suspended from a nail or hook by a "hanger" that is
attached to the housing. See Figure 2.
2. The unit can be attached to a wall using two mounting bosses. Distance
between the mounting boss holes' center is 8.5". Remove grille and
secure baffle to wall with screws. This mounting provides better low
frequency response for music and a more secure attachment to the wall.
See Figure 3.
