 The CS360 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 38 mm (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 38 mm 
(1-1/2") #10 screw. 
NOTE: 
The customer is responsible for the correct selec-
tion and use of mounting hardware (available through 
hardware stores) that will ensure the proper and safe 
wall-mounting of the speakers.
Fixed-Mount Wall Bracket
Step 1.
 Mark the positions on the wall where you would 
like to place the mounting screws.
Step 2. 
Attach the bracket to the wall using two screws 
(not included).
Step 3.
 Remove the rubber ring on the bottom of the 
satellite and hold the satellite or center channel speak-
er in the right position on the bracket.
Step 4.
 Attach the short Phillips screw into insert on 
bottom of speaker and tighten.
Step 5. 
Attach speaker wire as shown on page 7.
NOTE: 
The fixed-mount wall bracket for the center 
speaker is the one with the wide support plate. The 
center speaker has to be mounted horizontally when 
using the fixed-mount bracket. See image on page 4. 
In order to attach this bracket, first detach the stand 
and remote sensor that are fixed to the center speaker 
from the factory. Simply loosen and remove the large 
Phillips screw at the bottom of the stand. The remote 
sensor and the stand come off as two separate items, 
and you may now position the remote sensor freely, if 
you decide to use it. The bracket should be attached to 
the wall first, then the cables should be connected to 
the speaker, and finally you can attach the speaker to 
the bracket with the large Phillips screw from beneath.
Adjustable Wall Bracket
Step 1.
 Remove cap over threaded insert on rear of 
speaker.
Step 2.
 Mark the positions on the wall where you would 
like to place the mounting screws.
Step 3.
 Place bracket against the wall and fasten four 
38 mm (1-1/2") #10 wood screws through the bracket’s 
screw holes into the wall. If a wall stud is not available, 
use an appropriate anchor.
Step 4.
 Unscrew round collar (C) from bracket (A). 
Step 5.
 Screw the ball and shaft assembly (B) to the 
short Phillips screw insert on the back of the satellite 
or the center channel (do not use the bottom insert on 
either speaker). Back out 1/2 of a turn and tighten the 
nut against the speaker. If the ball and shaft assembly 
is not backed out before tightening the nut, perform-
ing Step 8 below may dislodge the threaded insert 
in the speaker housing and permanently damage the 
speaker.
Step 6. 
Attach speaker wire as shown on page 7.
Step 7.
 Drop round collar (C) over ball and shaft assem-
bly (B) that is mounted to the speaker with the finished 
side of the collar facing the rear of the speaker.
Step 8. 
Carefully push the ball straight into the socket 
mounted on the wall, angle the speaker as desired and 
tighten the collar using the enclosed metal bar.
