  • Page 11 CEILING INSTALLATION WITH THE STANDARD WALL BRACKET (included in box) Thanks to the Serio's low weight and standard wall bracket, it is possible to place the speaker on the ceiling, either as a surround or as a ceiling speaker. For the surround position, they need to be tilted at 45° and for the ceiling position it is recommended that they be left upright (with the glass parallel to the ceiling).
  • Page 12 STEP 1 In order to be able to rotate the speaker and direct it towards the listening area, it is recommended that you fix the bracket with just one screw (the middle one) with a 4mm diameter countersunk head (not supplied). If there is no need to orientate the speaker, attach the bracket with 2 screws, adjusting the level.
