This section provides information on installation and connection methods for DVX-C300 speakers. For DVX-C300SW, refer to the manual provided with your speakers.

Placing the speakers

Placing the center speaker

When placing the center speaker on top of the TV, use the supplied fasteners to secure the speaker.
Fastener
Peel off
the seal
1 Peel off the seals on one side of the fasteners and
attach them to the bottom of the center speaker.
2 Peel off the seals on the other side of the fasteners
and attach them to the top of the TV.

Hanging on a wall

You can hang the speakers (front and surround only) on a wall using a commercially available bracket and screws (Diameter: 6 mm). Attach a bracket firmly to the rear of the speakers using screws. Then mount a screw on the wall where the speaker is to be hung and hook the speaker securely onto the mounted screw.
Note: – Do not use screw threads measured in inches for this
installation. Use metric screw threads only.

Attaching to a wall

You can attach the speakers (front and surround only) to a wall using commercially available screws (Diameter: 3.5 to 4 mm (1/8” to 5/32”), Length: 20 mm (25/32”) or more). One speaker requires two screws. To attach all speakers to a wall, you need to prepare eight screws.
Screws (3.5 to 4mm (1/8” to 5/32” dia., commercially available)
Notes: – Do not place the speaker on the TV if the top of the
TV is not level or if it is narrower than the bottom surface of the speaker. Doing so may cause the speaker to fall. In this case, place the speaker inside a TV rack or on a level floor.
– Before attaching the fasteners to the TV, clean the
surface with a dry cloth. A dirty or wet surface may weaken the adhesive force and cause the speaker to fall.
– Do not touch the bonding surfaces of the fasteners
after peeling off the seals. Doing so may weaken the adhensive force and cause the speaker to fall.

2 Hang the speaker on the screws using the holes in
the back of the speaker.
Note: – After attaching each speaker, check that the speaker
is fixed securely. YAMAHA will bear no responsibility for any accidents caused by improper installations.
