Nice simple brackets and a great priceApr 09, 2009
By Juniorverse1
I was already spending a ton of money on my new home theater system and TV and it was killing me to see the prices for some of the speaker mounts... until I found these!
They're not the highest quality out there, but they are definitely worth the price. They are able to be mounted in a variety ways, including through standard 1/4" or 6/32" speaker mount holes or using a speaker's keyhole mount.
They come with the following parts so you can mount them to almost any speaker, regardless of their mounting holes:
- 20 wall anchors and screws.
- 10 6/32" short speaker screws
- 10 6/32" long speaker screws
- 10 1/4" short speaker screws
- 10 1/4" long speaker screws
- 10 hex nuts
The maximum weight for these mounts is 10 lbs per speaker.
Although advertised as "black", they're not a pure black (as they don't really match my pure black Energy speakers). They're sort of gray-black. Not a big deal for me personally, but I thought I should pass that along. :)
Overall, a great value.

Works with Energy RC-Micro with some DIYSep 12, 2011
By Shuvradeep Mukherjee
"Privately Positively Geek"
Got these for a new set of Energy RC Micro speakers. Out of the box these don't work with the Micro speakers. I dismantled the ball&socket (by twisting off the big black ring) and inserted a 1/4 - 20, 1.5" bolt (from home depot) into it, with the screw end sticking out. Then I took out the keyhole from the back of the speakers (simple, 1 screw) and screwed in the ball&socket into the hole. Then I put back the ball&socket (the big black ring) and screwed the mounts into the wall (4 of them per mount). Used my own wall anchors and screws. Did not find any use for the different screws, bolts and anchors etc that came in the box with this mount. Overall clean DIY solution using the ball&socket mounts. Still holding strong after a week with no sagging. Took me an hour to put together, including the home depot run to get the bolt.

 Simple, Easy, Speaker MountsOct 22, 2009
By Joe Tedd
I was looking for a quick, easy simple way to mount my new Energy Take 5.1 speakers, & these nifty speakermounts were suggested under the item I bought from Amazon, they were rated well, VERY reasonably priced, & looked so simple even I could install them with no muss/no-fuss, and that's exactly how they worked out!
No Muss, No Fuss! A few simple turns of the screwdriver & wa-la! Wall mounted speakers made easy. For me, since some angeling of the speakers was desired, having the option to use the screw mount or the speaker insert mount (the ovely-things which fits into the back of the speakers, is that a technical way of explaining it?) made these a no-brainer for me. If you are looking for an inexpensive, easy way to mount your speakers & are reading this review, I will tell you this is a great product & a great bargain.

 Decent mount - bad screws and inconsistent fasteningSep 30, 2011
By intro
SEPT, 2011: I bought these for my Energy take one classic speakers. I only used two for the surround speakers. These are decent mounts. Construction quality is decent and strong enough for my energy classic speakers. 2 issues though, the included screws are really cheap and the angle fastening is inconsistent.
WARNING. DO NOT USE THEIR SCREWS. I tried using their long screws that were included with the package. I screwed them into a wall stud, and as i was tightening them the heads of the screws broke off. This happened to 3 of the 4 screws. So i had to take them down because without the head there's nothing holding the bracket to the wall! The screw was broken off into the wall and I had to use pliers to pull them out. One of them i just hammered further in so it wouldn't stick out. Then i mounted the wall bracket someplace else with some decent screws that i luckily had stored away. I think wooden walls should give before any screw does. These are low quality screws. The second place i mounted them wasn't in studs so i used anchors and they are fine. But after the experience with the cheap screws i had no faith in the anchors that came with the package so i used some of my own as well!
To angle the speakers, you first tilt them in the direction you want, then tighten the back of the mount. Of the two i hooked up to the wall, one was perfectly fine. I angled it and tightened it and it stayed perfectly. However, the other one wouldn't keep the angle despite how much i tightened it. It would just keep drooping down. My solution was to take a bit of scotch tape and put that over the 'ball' inside the mount to create more tension when fastening. It worked, but if anybody touches it, it may droop down again. I wish i had tested the 5 mounts that came with the package to figure out which two tightened the best.
Also, if you're using these for the Energy classic speakers, the keyhole screws they include were too big for me to use with these speakers. I could have gone out and gotten a replacement screw, but instead i just unscrewed the keyhole mount from the back of the speakers (2 small screws and easy to put back if i ever chose to). That made space to use the standard speaker mounting screw. I put that through the middle of the speaker mount (the hole in the mount where the instructions tell you to put the keyhole screw). The mount isn't flush to the speaker a bit angled, but it's in there pretty solid and i'm not afraid of it coming loose.
So they're decent mounts, cheaper than most out there in price and do the job. The've been up for a week and are holding up my Energy classic speakers well. If you use your own screws and anchors when you install you shouldn't have any issues putting them up. Just hope that the tilt control screw is nice and tight for you on both of them.
UPDATE May 2012: These mounts are still holding up 8 months later. And that issue i had with the drooping speaker mount tightening hasn't had any issues since i put the scotch tape in there to increase the tension.

cost effectiveDec 24, 2009
By C. page
Was in the market for a cheap decent set of speaker mounts. Found exactly what i was looking for here. Just pay close attention on the weight of your speakers.
