Mounting the Stage X On A Wall
NOTE: These instructions describe how to remove the stand from
the Stage X and mount it to the wall. MartinLogan recommends
using 4 wall anchors and machine screws to secure the Stage X
bracket to the wall. When drilling pilot holes for the wall bracket,
if any screw location hits a stud, it is recommended to directly
screw a lag screw into the stud.

(4) TOGGLER ® SNAPTOGGLE ® Toggle Bolts (Wall Anchors)
(4) 10-24 x 1.25" machine screws
(1) 1/8" Allen Tool
(2) 1/4" x 2.5" Lag Screws (7/16" head)
(2) Flat Washers for Lag Screws
Required tools (not supplied):
2 ft. level or a 2 ft. board and a small level
Electric drill
1/8" drill bit
1/2" drill bit
7/16" socket drive
Phillips screwdriver
Pencil
NOTE: These instructions assume the mounting surface is of
wood frame and standard sheetrock construction. If you wish to
mount the Stage X to another type of material or construction,
you should Stage X a bonded contractor.
WARNING! This operation requires 2 people. Do not
attempt to install your Stage X by yourself
WARNING! For safety reasons, the Stage X is shipped
with four small rubber feet installed on the bottom of
the metal stand. If the stand is being mounted on a
wall, these small rubber feet must be removed.

Installation
Figure 3. Remove the stand from the speaker.
1
Prepare a flat surface with padding and sheets to protect the
speaker as you work on it. Disconnect any wires and care-
fully place the Stage X on the work surface. Loosen the two
large knobs securing the stand. Rotate the stand back and
up allowing the speaker itself to sit directly on the surface.
2
Make sure that the 4 small rubber feet on the bottom of the
Stage X's metal bracket/stand are removed. If they are not,
do so at this time by gently pulling and rocking them out of
the holes.
3
Remove the stand/wall-bracket by completely unscrewing
the two large knobs (figure 3).
IMPORTANT! Make sure that the four press fit washers
remain in place, two attached to the bracket and two
attached to the speaker cabinet.
