SpEaKEr/SOUndbar On-Wall inStallatiOn
If you mount your G-12,G-16,G-28 speakers or G-42 Soundbar on a wall, do not
attach the pedestals. Determine a suitable location for each speaker to wall-
mount and complete all wiring to all speaker positions before mounting speakers
to the wall. Do not ceiling-mount.
1.
If you have the G-28 or G-42
, use included template and choose mount
position for the speaker (horizontal or vertical). Pin template to wall, mak-
ing sure it is level (when horizontally mounting) or plumb (when vertically
mounting) and positioned correctly, centered with the TV’s center points for
example. Mark on wall the pilot hole locations through the template and
remove template.
If you have the G-12 or G-16
, mark on wall 2 pilot hole
points
9.26”apart for the G-12 or 13.25”apart for the G-16
(make sure
the points are lined up so that the speaker hangs straight up and down verti-
cally or level horizontally). For all speakers, Leave a minimum of one inch
space between speaker cabinet and TV. Keep in mind that, when mounted,
the speaker will “lock” into position 5/16” up, down, left or right of where
the pilot holes are drilled.
2. Pre-drill pilot holes in marked locations. If drilling into a wall stud (ideal) it
is recommended to use #10 mounting screws (not included) to mount the
speaker bracket (G-28 and G-42) or the speaker itself (G-12 and G-16).
If there is no stud where a pilot hole is located, install wall anchors (not
included) into the pilot holes to hold the bracket or speaker instead. Wall
anchors should be rated to at least 6 pounds (G-12 and G-16) or 12 pounds
(G-28 and G-42).
3. If vertical wall-mounting, feed speaker wire into speaker bottom area and
attach each wire to appropriate screw-terminal binding post (See Diagram
1). If horizontal wall-mounting, feed speaker wire to channel(s) that start on
the back center part of the speaker, then continue running wire through the
channel(s) and attach each wire to the appropriate screw-terminal binding
post the same as if vertical mounting. (Note: using speaker wire larger than
18 gauge may not allow wire(s) to completely fit in channels). If needed,
stick the included adhesive strip on a point over the channel to hold the
wires in place in the channel (See Diagram 2).
4. Gently push the speaker onto the two tabs on the mounted bracket through
its keyholes (G-28 and G-42) or onto the two screws in the wall (G-12 and
G-16) and push 5/16” up, down, right or left to lock into position.

G-12,G-16,G-28 Connection - Using 16-gauge or larger speaker wire, con-
nect the RED “positive” (+) terminal of the LEFT speaker to the RED “positive”
(+) terminal of your amplifier’s LEFT channel. Connect the BLACK “negative” (-)
terminal of the left speaker to the BLACK “negative” (-) terminal of your amplifier’s
left channel. Repeat this procedure for connecting all remaining speakers to the
appropriate amplifier channels.
G-42 Soundbar Connection - Since this speaker contains the LEFT, RIGHT and
CENTER channels, connect each one of these channels from your amplifier as
above to the designated “Left”, “Right” and “Center” terminals on the G-42.
Make sure that no bare wires from any of the connections touch each other or
any other terminals as this could cause a short and damage your equipment.
