Summary: Best Mounts On Market!
Comment:
These are great! Obviously you can not mount them on wallboard without added support. Anyone having problems with them holding has the mounts upside down! Put them the right way up and they will support like they are built to. I have used these over the years and they are the only ones I would buy again. My last set I put up yesterday and they work perfect. The instructions are not printed rather copied and a bit hard to read, but a little brain power will get you there easily. Make sure they are mounted with logo stamp on top as the instruction states, or they will fail! Mount them the right way and they will defy gravity for years.

Works as described, solid construction. Just make sure you know you'll have to order two. This is a single mount.

Summary: I used two to mount a center channel: works well.
Comment:
My application is slightly different than other reviewers. I wanted to mount a center channel speaker (Polk CSiA4) over my flat panel. It only weighs 16 pounds, but there was no way one mount could support it from one end. In order to center it over the LCD TV, I needed to attach both ends to two studs 16" apart. I managed to conduct this operation myself, but I had to construct a portable mount to support the flat panel while I located and attached the mounts to the wall and the speaker.

The final step was as tricky as other reviewers have noted. I did use pliers to hold/tighten the allen wrench/nut and got it very tight. However, I was still not able to get it to stay at exactly the angle I wanted. However, it was close enough and I'm very happy with the outcome.

Although it was a lot of work, I like the final look much better than just building a shelf for the center.

One note is that the included drill bit seems perhaps one or two sizes too small for the included screws. Screwing into the wall worked fine, but screwing into the speaker was a little dicey. It worked and will hold, but they need to reconsider the drill to screw ratio.

Summary: GREAT MOUNTS! GREAT PRICE!
Comment:
These Omni speaker mounts worked just as advertised. I am very pleased they look great (not that you can see much of them) and were easy to install (well it's not rocket science- would have been easier with two people like the directions say). We used them to mount a couple of 18lb speakers in a large room. We needed the floor space so it was important to get the speakers up high. If you are mounting anywhere near the ceiling though, get the ceiling mount set, even if you are mounting on the wall. The longer extension arm will give you more options for speaker adjustment. I would definitely buy them again and recommend them to anyone looking to get their speakers up on the wall or ceiling.

Summary: A little expensive, but works great.
Comment:
These mounts work great for the 8 lb NHT Absolute Zero speakers hanging from them. Once attached to the wall (into a stud) they feel very solid. The only minor issue is getting the wrench between the speaker and wall when trying to tighten the screw. Fortunately this only needs to be done once (or twice if adjustments are needed) when installing.
