OmniMount Stainless Steel Series Wall Speaker Mount (Black - 20lb) Reviews
You need to hit a stud for heavy speakers, or use some serious drywall screws (eg, buy new ones from your local hardware store). 1. 2. I'd recommend the former. "It doesn't tighten far enough to keep the speaker in position".
"They don't stick in the wall".
You're doin' it wrong.
I had a pair of ten pound speakers that needed wall-mounting, and bought a pair of these Omnimount 20s to do it.
There are a couple of recurring themes I've seen here in the reviews:.
If you put the mount into a stud, it's not going anywhere.
With my wife's help, the install went quite well, and they are now mounted to my satisfaction.
As I said before, I'm completely satisfied with the functionality and looks of these mounts, and could not be more happy with them.
Doing this _by yourself_ is going to be hard, so find a buddy.
You need to do what the manual says and get a pair of pliers to do the final tightening.
just used these to hang my ~14 pound speakers. the first one i put straight into a stud, and had absolutely no problems with it. the second one i tried putting on drywall with the included anchor, and it was not holding it well. once it is up on the wall good and tight, it is a great mount. i ended up ripping that one off the wall and moving it to a less ideal location over a stud. if they included better anchors with the mount, or had better advice on when to use them in drywall in the instructions, i would definitely give this 5 stars.
but while they do hang from the wall, they are supposd to be adjustable so you can aim the speakers. it worked out perfectly for me since that's where i needed them anyway, but you don't have a choice if you go with a heavy speaker. the price was decent compared to others. and they do look pretty nice. i was excited to find a set of mounts that claimed to hold the weight of my speakers.
so the speakers end up sliding down to the lowest aiming position until the stud bottoms out in the wall mounted socket. other than that they are pretty sturdy. well the teeth don't bite into the plastic ball good enough to hold the weight they claim.
Proper speaker placement and the sturdy wall mount provided by the 20 pound rated,( the speakers weigh 11 pounds)., Omnimounts allowed speaker placement for optimal performance and a clean looking set up. I will be ordering more for mounting monitors in my music studio, and looking forward to any other applications in the future. Having a pair of Bose bookshelf speakers and no bookshelf in the area that they would produce the best sound, the Omnimount Speaker mounts proved to be perfect. Thank you Omnimount. Sturdy, well built and a quality product.
I can't recommend this system. I have used the Omnimounts twice: the system rated for 20 pounds, with 16-pound speakers; and the system rated for 10 pounds, with 7-pound speakers. In both cases, I tightened the ball joint as much as possible and the mounts still wouldn't hold the speaker in the desired position. In addition, the drywall mounts on the 10.0 failed completely, and the instructions are vague and not terribly helpful. Finally, the location of the Allen fastener for tightening the ball joint is all but inaccessible.
