Exterior wall with blown-in insulation, and a plastic cover was stapled to the wall before the drywall was put in. Can I install this speaker there?

This is not an outdoor speaker. It is not make for any of the elements and I would not sugest that at all....it works great "inside" the home

Yes it should push in. If not you may need to cut and add plastic and vapor tape it.

I think you could install this speaker on an exterior wall, but I would be cautious for one main reason.By removing the blown in insulation you may cause moisture to form inside the wall when it's cold outside and warn inside.If you have 2x6 walls you may have enough room to replace the blown insulation with a bat of rolled-in insulation behind the speaker to provide you some insulation.You should also install a header board in the wall cavity to keep the blow-in insulation for falling down in to your speaker.

I seriously doubt it but you could write or call Polk. I have insulation behind mine (pink roll) and no issues. There is no electricity or heat that I am aware of.

I say go for it ! The speakers are sealed pretty tight with the outside cover plate .

This speaker is at a friend's house the next town over, so I can't physically look at it. However I have the owner's manual, which says nothing about mounting holes. The little picture in the booklet also does not indicate mounting holes. Mounting it on the wall is not a good idea, anyway. The main power on/off switch is in the back. The power cord and all of the audio cabling hookups are also in the back. If somehow you're able to mount this to a wall, you're going to want about 3" of clearance in the back. Just install a wall shelf and sit the speaker on it.

This is actually a great question. As the others have said, the backs are open, which is typically not an issue when installing into a wall or ceiling. HOWEVER...if you install into a ceiling that has blown insulation above it (the loose cellulose kind, not the rolled fiberglass kind) then you WILL want to come up with your own way of keeping the loose insulation off the backs of the speaker. If you don't (as I didn't the first time I bought these) then over time the quality and volume of the sound will lessen because of the insulation working into and pressing against the cones. I had to replace one set because of this problem.

This speakers placement is at the right end of a wall and inside corner. I have placed a cabinet to the left of this speaker. It performs very well and fills the 20 x 15 room fully. The cover for this speaker does not seat properly and needs to be secured or else it will vibrate. This speaker is powered by a 200 watt amp and it sounds excellent.

easy stuff. Speaker has a screw mounting bracket on the back. Just put a screw in the wall and hang the speaker. Be sure to firmly secure into a stud or get a hanger for drywall. Go to Ace or True Value and ask and they should be able to fix you up. Don't fret, a very easy hang up.

Nothing special required. There is a bracket on the back of the speaker that receives a screw in the wall. Just put a solid/reasonable size screw into the wall (preferably into a stud or use a toggle bolt) and hang the speaker. There are rubber feet on the back that makes sure the speakers do not vibrate. Great speakers highly recommended.

You may want to look into replacing the speaker assembly. Easy to do, and the parts are cheap.

hello from caracas, i never had seen one of this speakers as wall mounted, but everything is possible only you must to do use of ingenious and manual skills, anyway this unit is a pa system (public address) and it's the main use of this equipment, requires ac power, therefore is not comfortable wall mounted use, you must to buy or manufacture a heavy duty base for it. at rear side there is a big screw like a 14 mm, that i believe you can use for anchor it to the wall. i recommend you buy a lightweight speakers, may be surround speakers that there are more easily wall mounted. greetings and god bless you. hello from caracas, i never had seen one of this speakers as wall mounted, but everything is possible only you must to do use of ingenious and manual skills, anyway this unit is a pa system (public address) and it's the main use of this equipment, requires ac power, therefore is not comfortable wall mounted use, you must to buy or manufacture a heavy duty base for it. at rear side there is a big screw like a 14 mm, that i believe you can use for anchor it to the wall. i recommend you buy a lightweight speakers, may be surround speakers that there are more easily wall mounted. greetings and... » Read More hello from caracas, i never had seen one of this speakers as wall mounted, but everything is possible only you must to do use of ingenious and manual skills, anyway this unit is a pa system (public address) and it's the main use of this equipment, requires ac power, therefore is not comfortable wall mounted use, you must to buy or manufacture a heavy duty base for it. at rear side there is a big screw like a 14 mm, that i believe you can use for anchor it to the wall. i recommend you buy a lightweight speakers, may be surround speakers that there are more easily wall mounted. greetings and god bless you. « Show Less

I didn't do this so this is just an opinion. I don't know why you couldn't. You may have to drill a hole for mounting. First I would place it where you want it and see how it sounds.The only problem I can possibly foresee is this unit has fair bass. Hopefully it wouldn't vibrate on the wall.

Yes you can replace speaker wire. I do not believe the speakers can be wall hung with our modifying the speakers.

Austin, Yes I installed the speakers recessed into the drywall ceiling and installed the grill covers that were provided. I do believe reading in the installation guide that they can be painted. For the record these sound /perform great, no regrets

Each speaker can be hung from a sturdy bolt or screw in the wall. The bolt or screw should be attached in a secure place to a stud, not just wallboard.

I would add a strong shelf to the wall above the TV, then place this speaker on it. If you tap into the speaker it will damage the sound quality, and there are no mounts pre-built into this speaker.

There are no mounting holes etc. You would have to attach a small shelf to the wall and place the speaker on that.

No!!! I had to trim the speakers at the edges I remove the mounting clips from one side in order to fit it between the studs, I the had to put additional screws close to ten edge to hold it in place. The drywall had to be trimmed Down as well to get it Flush to the wall. Turned out to be more wore than I planed for.
