AVF silver home cinema wall/ceiling mounts

These stylish and discrete surround speaker wall/ceiling mounts are normally between £20 and £30.

Dixons have reduced them to £9.99 per pair (half price) and they are £14.99 in Currys!

Thanks woody67. These look very smart indeed.

The product code for Dixons and Currys is 290027.

I haven't got any rear speakers yet - will these fit to the majority of small rear speakers?

Can anyone point me to any good articles or discussions on cabling speakers and projectors that are connected to the ceiling? I've had a couple of quick looks around, but haven't spotted anything relevant yet.

Many thanks,
Roo.

They fit via the 'keyhole' at the back of the speaker or other threaded mounting hole. If not, you can just fix using a self tapping screw or bolt.

With regards cabling, then if you have no coving to hide the cable, then you will have to take the floorboards up!

Check the diy or cabling section, if not start a thread and we can answer it there.

These look nice If you were mounting speakers on a back wall would these allow them to be toed in a little by rotating the ball joint?

Thanks again woody67 - I think that I will be asking some questions soon.

I've picked up a pack of the mounts from Dixons today. They do appear to allow you to move them in all directions due to the ball mount. There are some photos on the back of the packet that show mounting options. I'll make some photos available later if anyone is interested - currently at work and the mounts are at home.
If you're looking for them then they are in clear blister packs - ew!

Cheers,
Roo.

Yes they can pivot, and the back of the speaker can be about 30mm from the wall
