ender21 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Not all walls have 16", or even 12" studs. With windows and casings for closets, etc., my HT buildout has resulted in all four of my KS-7800s having the dog ears be flush against a stud on one side. That means the dog ears that hold the speakers in place can't be rotated out and tightened to clasp the drywall. Only one side of the speakers can. Our solution is to tighten the dog ears as designed on one side of the speaker, and drill 2" screws through the grill casing on the other side, into the stud, to keep the speaker tight. A note to Klipsch: Put the dog ears on the top and bottom so they can be rotated to the side if room allows it, but also to the *top* so the speaker can be mounted against a stud if necessary. This ensures maximum installation flexibility. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
