KALI AUDIO LP-6 Loudspeaker
Overview
Beginning in late 2021, Kali Audio has built all of our full-range studio monitors with mounting hardware that is compatible with loudspeaker-specific brackets and the various mounts from Triad Orbit. This allows the speakers to be safely mounted to a wall or ceiling, allowing for more flexible setups. Most new Kali speakers include this hardware, but it is worth it to double check if you intend to mount the speakers.
On o check if your Kali Audio speaker includes this hardware, simply look at
the bottom left hand corner of the back panel, above the serial number.
“Wall/Ceiling Mountable” may also be found prominently on the packaging of units that have the hardware for mounting built in. If your IN- or LP-Series speaker does not say “Wall/Ceiling Mountable” on the amplifier panel, it does not have this hardware, and you should not by any means attempt to mount it.
All SM-Series speakers are fully mountable.
A full list of the serial numbers of units that include this hardware may be found on page 4.
Necessary Hardware
Mounting any Kali Audio speaker requires a loudspeaker-specific mounting
bracket from Triad-Orbit. Per-loudspeaker mounting brackets can be found
below. Kali also recommends using Triad-Orbit’s SM-UM1 or SM-SW1 and you may
elect to use further Triad Orbit hardware safe, secure mounting, and a clean
look in your studio.

Serial Numbers of Mountable Units
All Kali Audio products include the date of manufacture in the serial number.
This may be found in the 5th-10th characters of the serial number, so serial
number KL8210302100001 was made on 10-30-21 or October 30, 2021. To double
check the serial number of your speaker, find its model and version in the
right hand column, and check to see that its serial number is AFTER that of
the first unit produced with mounting hardware.
If the model and region you’re looking for is not yet on this list, it has not been produced yet. This document will be updated on our website once new versions with mounting hardware are produced.
