Note: For a floor or wall mounted Center Channel, a custom mounting bracket
is required. It is important that this bracket be made as instructed so as to be
strong enough to securely fasten the Center Channel to the ceiling or wall.

A ceiling mounted WATCH Center Channel will be mounted upside down
(tweeter beneath the midrange drivers). It will also need to be rotated down
towards the listening position. Due the variation in mounting locations and ceiling
heights, we are unable to determine for you, based solely in listening distance and
measured ear height, the amount of required rotation for your particular setup.
However, we will offer some suggestions that will allow you to achieve the best
performance possible for your particular speaker location. The guidelines are as
follows:
• The bracket must be able support 250 pounds. This more than the
weight of the Center channel but is necessary to maintain correct
safety standards.
• The bracket should angle the speaker down towards the listening posi-
tion. Ideally, the midrange drivers should be firing 15” below the lis-
tening ear height (see Figure 16).
