To install the SONOS SONANCE Outdoor Speakers, follow these steps:

1. Determine the placement of the speakers: The speakers can be mounted in various positions and locations using the FastMount bracket system. It is recommended to direct the speakers towards the listening area. If mounting above or below ear level, pivot them up or down to direct the sound towards the listeners. The speakers can be oriented either horizontally or vertically.

2. Choose the appropriate wire gauge: Consider the distance between the SONOS Amplifier and the speakers to determine the wire gauge. Refer to the wire gauge chart in the manual to select the correct wire gauge for the given distance.

3. Connect and assemble the speakers: Before starting, turn off the amplifier's power. Attach the FastMount brackets to the mounting surface using appropriate hardware. Run the speaker wires from the amplifier to the speaker locations and through the holes in the brackets if used. Feed the speaker wires from the bracket into the wire entry grommet on the back of the speaker, through the wire tunnel, and out the opening on the speaker's front panel. Slide the speaker onto the bracket and firmly snap it into place at the top and bottom of the speaker. Connect the speaker wires to the speaker's terminals, ensuring proper polarity. Fit the wiring connector cover into the recess in the speaker's front panel.

4. Mounting options: If mounting in a corner, attach the bracket with hardware through the slots in the angled corners. If mounting on a pole, use 2.5" U-bolts to attach the FastMount brackets to the pole.

5. Adjusting the speaker position: The speakers can be rotated in the bracket to direct the sound towards the listening area. Unlock the slide locks on the speaker pivots, rotate the speakers to the desired position, and lock the slide locks.

6. Unlocking SONOS Audio Enhancements: To utilize the exclusive audio enhancements of the SONOS OUTDOOR by SONANCE speakers, download the SONOS mobile app, set up your SONOS system, and choose the room where the speakers are located. Choose "Detect Sonos Architectural" in the app's settings to unlock the audio enhancements.
