The FreeSpace
®
DS 100SE loudspeaker can be mounted directly on
standard U.S. steel 4" x 4" junction boxes. There may be several
junction boxes available that are compatible with the FreeSpace DS
100SE wall mount bracket, but Bose Corporation only recommends
the junction boxes it has validated.
Please check pro.Bose.com for an up-to-date list of
Bose
®
validated junction boxes.
• It is the responsibility of the install
er to properly install junction
boxes to ensure the safety of the loudspeaker installation.
Consult a building professional for the proper junction box
i
nstallation methods before installing the loudspeaker.
• The junction box should be installed in such a way that it is
str
ucturally capable of supporting the weight of the loudspeaker.
A 10:1 safety weight ratio is recommended.
• Failure to properly install a junction bo
x or loudspeaker could
result in damage, injury, or death.
When installing the FreeSpace DS 100SE lo
udspeaker on a Bose-
validated on-wall junction box, only two (2) of the four (4) screw holes
of the wall mount bracket will be used. Bose has conducted
extensive tests to ensure that this loudspeaker mounting scheme
results in a safe installation. This loudspeaker mounting scheme has
passed a 10:1 safety weight ratio test.
• Use #8-32 x ¾ screws with #8 washers or #8-32 x ¾ truss head
scr
ews to mount the bracket to the junction box.
