The TSS-450 satellite is designed to be mounted on the wall.
There is a wall bracket for each satellite speaker. Each speaker
bracket will require (4) 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.
Step 1.
Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place the
mounting screws.
Step 2.
Place bracket against wall and fasten four 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 3.
Screw the post of the bracket into the 1/4"-20 threaded insert
on the back of the satellite. Adjust the satellite to the desired
angle and tighten the knob using the enclosed metal bar.
keyhole on the back of the speaker to the screwhead on the wall.
Once positioned properly, the speaker should
slide down slightly and become secure. Figure 4.

Turn Off All Power
First, turn off all audio-system power. Use high-quality speaker
wire to make your connections. #18-Gauge speaker wire with
polarity coding is recommended. For longer distances, #16-gauge
or heavier wire is recommended.The side of the wire with a ridge
or other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e., +).
Also, consult the owner’s manuals that were included with your
amplifier or receiver to confirm connection procedures.
Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown
in Figure 5. Connect each + terminal on the back of the
amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each
speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.
Important!
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making
connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished
bass response. Be certain that positive and negative wire strands
are completely isolated to avoid short circuits that may damage
your equipment.
