User manual POLK AUDIO ATRIUM 50

[. . . ] Remove the grille by carefully hooking it with a bent paper clip and pulling it gently away from the cabinet [figure 4]. Mask off the binding posts on the back of the speaker [figure 5], the end panels and bracket knobs, and carefully mask off the front of the speakers to protect the drivers and baffles while painting [figure 6]. the grille features an engraved logo pod. You can mask this off or paint right over it. [. . . ] Reattach the bracket to the speakers, if you have removed it, by reinserting it into the bracket gap and then tightening the bracket knobs. If you are certain that there is a stud behind the wall surface, drive #10 screws (not included) through the wall and into the stud [figure 10a]. 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 instructions. Always use two wall anchors and two screws per speaker [figure 10b]. Drive screws into stud or wall anchors, leaving screw heads protruding 1/16" (1/6mm). FIGURES 10a & b Use #10 screw for wall stud, use #10 wall anchors + screw for no wall stud. Use tornillos n° 10 si la pared tiene parales internos, use anclas de pared y tornillos n° 10 si la pared no tiene parales internos. 6 Get more information and exclusive accessories, visit www. If speaker wire is being fed from a hole in the wall behind the bracket, pull this speaker wire through the hole in the bracket before mounting the bracket [figure 11]. Line up the bracket, attached to the speaker, so that the screw heads pass through the large center hole of the bracket's keyhole slots. Let the speaker and bracket slide straight down, allowing the screw head to slip behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot [figure 12]. Tug gently on the speaker to make certain that the screws and bracket are properly aligned and that the wall anchors are secure. 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. 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 [figure 13]. Follow the hookup directions included with your receiver. Strip 1/2 inch 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 unfrayed 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 14]. Most wire has some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency. FIGURE 11 Feed speaker wire from wall through bracket wire hole for easy mounting. FIGURE 12 Slide the bracket down on the screw heads to catch the keyhole slots. For more solid mounting, screw the bracket directly into a weight-bearing stud on the mounting surface.
