Flexibilty, functionality, and value., December 20, 2006

Putting together 5.1 channel home theater audio, I ended up with a bevy of used Gallo Accoustic Nucleus speakers and needed some way to get them to the right height at a small price. This Omnimount 5 pack sure hit the spot. These mounts can be used as wall or ceiling mounts (there’s a little extra piece to use when ceiling mounting that you leave out when putting them on a wall. There are a bunch of included bolts of different threads and lengths to fit a multitude of speakers from Bose to generic box speakers. There’s even an adapter for speakers without screw mount that require you to screw a mounting plate into the wood. They say they hold 8lbs but I ended up successfully mounting a 10lb center channel speaker with one. I’m a satisfied customer. Black nylon construction is nice looking and light weight.

Great Mounts, drywall anchors didn’t work, May 11, 2009

By

I think these are fantastic mounts for the price. I mounted all of them but one into studs and they don’t budge. You have the ability to use these with an extender (included) or without. I am able to angle these any way I please.

The only complaint is the drywall anchors. I originally tried to mount these all using the drywall anchors so I could have them exactly where I wanted them. I have a smaller living room and am using these to mount the 4 rears in my 7.1 surround system so I was trying to get as much space between side and rear surrounds, which meant not mouting on studs. I used the drill bit sizes indicated in the instructions. Not one anchor would stay put, it wanted to got into the wall or pull out so I ended up mounting on the studs, except for one spot where there wasn’t any at all close to where I originally wanted them. I used some anchors from walmart and they worked perfectly. The ability to angle and tilt the speakers in nearly any direction allowed me to overcome not being able to mount them exactly where I wanted them. Overall a fantastic buy!! If you are looking for speakers mounts these are the ones. Just buy a pack of 1/4″ anchors and leave them unopened, if the one’s included great, if not you won’t have to stop and run to the store to finish your install.

Do no keep speakers in place., January 8, 2010

By

I bought these to mount the satellite speakers for my Sony Home Theater System. They are not good. The screws that hold the speakers at the correct angle cannot be tightened enough to keep the speakers in the right place. With a minor bump, they droop. Spend the extra dollars and buy a more robust product.
