14. Tug gently on the speaker to make certain

that the screws and bracket are properly

aligned and that the wall anchors are secure.

15. If the bracket is not held snug against the

wall by the screw heads, remove the speaker

from the wall, drive the screws in a little

further and then remount the speaker.

16. Once the speaker is mounted, the bracket

knobs can be loosened to “aim” the speaker,

and then hand tightened to keep the speaker

angled correctly.

VERTICAL MOUNT AIMED 45° DOWN

The Atrium Series mounting bracket is designed

so the speakers may be mounted in a vertical

45° downward firing position [Figure 15].

Use an anchoring device that can support the

weight of your Atrium model and be sure the

material you are mounting the loudspeaker

to can support its weight.

RECEIVER HOOKUP

Follow the hookup directions included with

your receiver. Strip 1/2" of insulation from each

of the two conductors of the wire to expose

the bare metal and twist each of the conductors

into a single un-frayed strand (so you have

two unfrayed strands).

Note that one of the terminals on the rear of

each speaker is red (+) and the other is black (–).

Make certain that you connect the wire from

the red terminal of your amplifier or receiver

to the red terminal on your speaker; and the

wire from the black terminal of your amplifier

or receiver to the black terminal on your speaker

[figure 16]. Most wire has some indicator (such

as color-coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the

two conductors to help you maintain consistency.

6. If you are certain there is a stud behind

the wall surface, drive #10 screws (not

included) through the wall and into the

stud [figure 11a].

7. If there is no stud behind the wall at the

chosen location, install #10 wall anchors

(not supplied) into the wall by following

the wall-anchor-manufacturer’s instruc-

tions. Always use two wall anchors and

two screws per speaker [figure 11b].

8. Drive the screws into the stud or wall

anchors, leaving screw heads protruding

1/8"~1/4" (3mm~6mm).

9. If you’re feeding speaker wire through a

hole in the wall behind the bracket, pull this

speaker wire through the hole in the bracket

before mounting the bracket [figure 12].

10. Screw the bracket directly into a weight-

bearing stud on the mounting surface.

Place the screws securely in the smaller

end of the keyhole slot. Do not leave

screw heads protruding.

Note: All Atrium loudspeaker cabinets have

molded ramps, which guide the speaker bracket

onto threaded protrusions to which the bracket

knobs attach.

11. Screw the bracket knobs into the protru-

sions but do not tighten them securely.

12. Secure the speaker to the bracket by sliding

the speaker between the bracket arms. The

built-in ramps will spread the bracket slightly

and guide the ends of the bracket onto the

threaded protrusions. A ratcheting system

holds the speaker in place and helps you fine

tune how you want to aim it. [figure 14].

13. Secure the loudspeaker to the bracket

by tightening the adjusting bracket knobs.
