PRODUCT DATA
WALL-MOUNTING THE SPEAKERS USING INCLUDED
WALL BRACKETS
Adjustable wall brackets are included for the JBL
Control X speakers. The included brackets are for
wall-mounting only. Ceiling-mounting these JBL
Control X speakers is not recommended, regardless
of the bracket used.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Proper selection of
mounting hardware not included herein, and proper
assembly and installation of brackets, including,
but not limited to, selection of appropriate weight-
bearing support and bracket use with the specified
speaker only is the exclusive responsibility of the
customer. Manufacturer disclaims any liability for
the selection of mounting hardware and/or bracket
installation.
A. Loosen and remove the molded nut (2) by turning it
counterclockwise. Use the supplied metal bar (5) if
necessary by inserting it in one of the holes on the
molded nut (2).
B. Pull the ball/shaft (3) out of the wall bracket (4).
C. Slide the molded nut (2) onto the ball/shaft (3)
with threaded opening facing the ball, and thread
on the metal nut (1) all the way onto the ball/shaft
(3), with the nut’s (1) “knurled” surface facing away
from the ball.
D. Screw the ball/shaft (3) into the threaded 3/8”-16
insert (6) on the back of the speaker cabinet until
it is fully seated against the bottom of the insert.
Back out the ball-shaft assembly one half turn
and tighten the nut against the speaker. If the
ball and shaft assembly is not backed out before
tightening the nut, performing Step G below
may dislodge the threaded insert in the speaker
housing and permanently damage the speaker.
E. Tighten the “knurled” nut (1) using a crescent
wrench until it is firmly seated against the back
of the speaker and has fully locked the ball/ shaft
(3) and the speaker cabinet together. Please note
that once this nut is tightened, it may embed
some marks on the back of the speaker where the
attachment is made. However, these marks will be
covered by the nut (1).
F. The security cable (8) is provided as an additional
measure to prevent the speaker from falling in
case the speaker becomes detached from the
wall bracket. One of the two lower screws (9) that
attach the wall bracket (4) to the wall will need
to go through the eyelet (11) at the end of the
cord before going through the wall-bracket hole.
Make sure that the screw head is at least 0.36”
(approximately 3/8”) or larger in diameter so that it
can properly hold the backup cord eyelet (11).
G. Mount the wall bracket (4) onto a wood stud on the
wall, using #10, minimum 1”, panhead wood screws.
Make sure that all four screws are driven into
the stud, not drywall. If the bracket needs to be
mounted on drywall, the use of properly selected
and installed wall anchors and screws is essential.
H. Securely attach the other end (10) of the security
cable (8) to the Control X by engaging it through
the bar (12) on the back speaker, as shown in the
illustration.
I. Connect your speaker wire to the terminals (13) on
the rear of the speaker. Be sure to leave enough
cable if mounting speakers in horizontal position.
J. Holding the speaker cabinet (7) with both hands,
reinsert the ball portion of the ball/shaft (3) into
the wall bracket (4).
K. Hand-tighten the molded nut (2) while positioning
the speaker for the intended orientation.
L. Once the orientation of the speaker is finalized,
use the metal bar (5) in one of the holes on the
molded nut (2) and tighten securely.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE MOLDED NUT (2).
