Mount Rear Speakers in media room

... think Bo has lost faith with me...

Heck no. I just wouldn't risk a set of JBL's on anything other than solid mounting. And, I'll just select a seat more toward the center of the room, if you don't mind!

Granted, I'm overly aware of the damage/fatigue and unexpected things that sonic vibrations can cause. I've seen main stacks walk-off position all by themselves. Impossible to believe considering it took a busload of roadies to get them positioned. Nowadays, EVERYTHING is tied down...

I went the limit, 4" wood screws into the studs, 2' maple boards that the brackets were mounted to with good sized wood screws and bolts nuts washers secure the brackets to the back of the speakers, had to remove the woofers to do it. All the brackets were pro (JBL/Omnimount or Versamount) and probably rated at least three times the weight of the 4301b. Have them installed much like a radio/tv control booth in my 8x10 foot room. The house will fall down before the 4301b fall/move.

Heather- took some more inventory. I've also got 50 lb. ST-MPs and 75 lb. CA-PAs. Like, a dozen of each. Feel free to take a look through, pick out some possibilities, and take them home to work 'em through the potential mounting points. One might work for you, or at least help you visualize an approach that does work for you. Then, if you want some, make a low-ball offer for the ones you want. Oatmeal scotchies, for one example, go quite a long way here.

Let me know,
