Features

Application: The Bose WB-3 wall brackets are custom-designed for Bose 201 and 301 Series IV and V speakers only. Four interlocking metal brackets are provided--two for each speaker. Mounting hardware is supplied. The speakers can be mounted to wood studs, wooden or masonry walls, or drywall. The speakers hang approximately 1/2" from wall when mounted.

Mounting Preparations:

  • Speakers: Before the speakers can be mounted, a bracket must first be fastened to each speaker. This requires drilling two pilot holes into the back of the speaker cabinet using the supplied 1/16" drill bit. One of the self-adhesive rubber bumpers must also be attached to each speaker.
  • Wall: Once the speaker mounting locations have been selected, you must fasten one bracket per speaker to the wall using either the supplied wood screws or toggle bolts. Two pilot holes should be drilled for each speaker bracket. If you are using the wood screws, a 1/4" drill bit should be used in order to insert the supplied plastic expansion wall anchors. If you are using the toggle bolts, a 1/2" drill bit should be used to allow the toggle to be inserted completely through the drywall.

Dimensions:

  • Mounting Bracket: Width=5.009", Height=1.606", Depth=0.468"
  • Screw Pattern:
    • Width: 4" using outer screw holes
    • Height: 0.5" using center screws (only when mounting to vertical wall stud)

I HAVE NO IDEA-- I MOUNTED MY 301'S ON A FLAT WALL WITH THE BRACKETS-- TRY ONE AND SEE IT CAN'T HURT, YOU'LL ONLY HAVE TO FILL IN TWO SMALL HOLES-----
michael w  Feb 14, 2021
A
I think they would, mine are mounted on a wall and I pulled on the bottom of them and there wasn't much give.
jeremie  Feb 13, 2021
Q
With the bose 301 speaker do you have to drill into the back of speaker to mount brackets?
phillip  Feb 06, 2020

A
Part of the bracket system must be screwed into the back of the speaker. Whether you decide to drill pilot holes for those screws is up to you I suppose. I drilled small pilot holes about 1/2-3/4 inch deep and the install worked fine.

I believe in the instructions it says that you have to. I purchased the 201's and had to but they have specs on where to screw them in at so that you don't hurt the actual speaker.

Yes

I'm not sure of the rating but I've had a pair of Bose 301's hanging on the wall for over a year. No vibration problems. Well worth the cost.
william  Dec 29, 2018

I don't know. The speakers seem very secure on the wall.

This may come too late to be of help. We hung the speakers on the wall and these brackets work very well.
amanda w  Feb 05, 2014

yes
gary  Jan 18, 2014

Hi, They sure do. I have them mounted on my wall right now. They're actually quite slick. I would recommend them.
ryan j  Jan 17, 2014
A
They worked very well on the 301 speakers I purchased from Crutchfield. Enjoy Tc
thomas  Jan 17, 2014

Brian, I used mine for a pair of 301 series IV and they are great. If you look at Crutchield's link to the owner's manual (Under the "Details" tab on the item page) it shows how they are installed. The 201/301 Series IV instructions are on page 5.
chris j  Jan 17, 2014

I have them on a set of series 3 so im sure they will fit series 4 the paperwork that comes with them wont match your series 4 but you just have to measure them to find the best location to attach them yourself
mark  Jan 17, 2014
A
the answer to brian's question is yes they will work on Bose's 301 4 Series even though I used the brackets on older Bose's 201.
michael  Jan 17, 2014
A
Yes. It is stated under the description for the brackets.
