7.
Mark
the
location
of
pilot holes
noted
on
the
Mounting
Template
with
a pencil; remove
the
template.
8. Pre-drill
the
pilot-hole locations for
mounting
screws
(not
included). Use screws rated
to
hold
securely
in
the
wall material
(we
recommend
#10
screws).
9. It
is
best if
at
least
one
screw
hits
a wall stud.
If
there
is
no
stud
behind
the
pilot hole location, install wall
anchors
(not
included)
to
secure
the
bracket screws. Follow
the
wall
anchor
manufacturer's
directions. Each wall
anchor
should
be rated
to
hold
at
least
one-
half
of
the
product
net
weight [see specifications
on
front cover].
10. For
masonry
walls, use a
masonry
drill bit
to
pre-drill holes,
and
use
masonry
anchors
and
screws
(not
included).
11. Pull
the
speaker wires
through
the
hole in
the
bracket.
12. Screw
the
bracket
to
the
wall.
13. The bracket has
two
sets
of
keyhole slots,
one
set for vertical
and
the
other
set for horizontal orientation.
When
the
wall
mounting
bracket
is
securely screwed
to
the
wall, line
up
the
speaker's
protruding
Mounting
Screws
with
the
appropriate keyhole slots
on
the
wall
mounting
bracket. Let
the
speaker slide straight
down
(in horizontal alignment)
or
push
the
speaker sideways (vertical
alignment), allowing
the
screw heads
to
slip
behind
the
smaller
end
of
the
keyhole slots.
Gently
push
the
edge
of
the
speaker
opposite
the
screw heads toward
the
wall
until
the
speaker snaps
onto
the
lower lip
of
the
bracket.
Mounting the Mythos Nine
to
an
articulating
TV
bracket
If
you
have
a Plasma
or
LCD
TV
that
is
attached
to
the
wall via a
swing-out articulating bracket
such
as
those
offered
by
Chief, Sanus
and
OmniMount,
the
Mythos
Nine
speaker
may
be
attached
to
the
bracket
without
using
the
supplied
wall-mount
plate. Simply
use )("-20 screws
to
attach
the
speakers directly
to
the
TV
bracket.
Consult
the
TV
bracket manufacturer's user
manual
for more
specific speaker
mounting
instructions.
Using the Leveling Foot
If
you are going
to
use
the
Mythos Nine
in
horizontal
mode
on
a shelf
or
table, first attach
the
wall bracket
to
the
speaker as described above.
Attach
the
one
"L" bracket
to
the
wall bracket using
one
M4 x

the
foot screw
into
"L" bracket
and
adjust
to
required height.
Attaching the

be
affixed in
the
correct
place
on
the
grille
once
you
have determined
the
speaker's alignment.
For
horizontal (center channel) use, align
the

of
insulation from each
conductor
of
the
speaker wire
to
expose
the
bare metal
and
twist each
of
the
individual conductors
into
single un-frayed strands.
