stand-mounted speakers can be found under the section entitled Positioning and fine-tuning.

The Mercury V1 and VC may also be wall mounted with a suitable bracket, using two inserts on the rear of the loudspeaker, 

with standard 60mm spacing. The thread in the inserts is M5. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the chosen 

bracket is used within its load rating, and the bracket is securely mounted to the wall with suitable hardware.

The Mercury VR is provided with integral hanging plates for wall mounting.

disconnecting any cables. Before switching on double check that all connections are secure and that polarity is correct.

The positive (plus) terminal on the amplifier left channel (marked + or coloured red) must be connected to the positive 

HF terminal on the left speaker. The left speaker is the one on the left as you look at the stereo pair from your

The negative (minus) terminal on the amplifier left channel (marked - or coloured black) must be connected to the 

negative HF terminal on the left speaker.

Repeat this connection process for the right speaker. Remember that the positive (+ or red) on the amplifier must be 

connected to the positive (+ or red) on the speaker and the negative (- or black) to negative.
