WALL - MOUNTING THE SATELLITES
AND CENTER CHANNEL
The CS480 satellites and center channel are designed to be mounted
on the wall. There is a fixed-mount wall bracket and an adjustable
wall bracket provided for each satellite and the center channel. Each
speaker bracket will require up to four 1-1/2" #10 wood screws; each
screw should be fastened to a wall stud. If a wall stud is unavailable,
install an anchor appropriate for a 1-1/2" #10 screw.
NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection
and use of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores)
that will ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers.
