Speaker placement. Is it better to have them at the far end of the rectangular room where it's narrower and allow for more flexible seating arrangements, or along the side to make them further apart for greater stereo separation? If the speakers aren’t positioned correctly, sound quality suffers. Determine the location of each speaker and choose a wall mount that works in the available space. The Verdict?

Choosing the best speaker wall mounts is not always a straightforward task. Consult the FAQs below if you have any remaining questions. Q. Why should I mount my speakers to the walls? Best practices for mounting the speakers for your wireless surround sound system to your wall are determined by the size, layout, and intended use of each room. However, some general guidelines to keep in mind when positioning your speakers include: I was concerned that due to the powered speaker weight, I will need to screw the speakers in however, the clamping design is so intuitive and strong that I am sure itll hold and I save my speakers from drilling into which is a huge plus. Another concern was rattling of any sort or distortion which also has not proven to be the case perhaps thanks to the soft fabric material that is glued everywhere where the clamps meet the speaker, I must admit this was cleverly designed and I approve this 100%! I have Edifier R1280DB speakers and I wanted to position them to the ear level and did not want them to occupy the desk space anymore and not settling down to using stands of any sort.

Generally, tower speakers are the only speakers that aren’t compatible with wall mounts. With the speakers below, wall mounts are ideal: It’s important to consider the “sweet spot” for the best performance. This is the key listening position so we’re going to want to optimise the sound quality to suit. Depending on the size of the room (this applies for smaller rooms), it is actually *better* to place the speakers as close to the front wall as you can, due to something called SBIR. The closer to the wall, the higher the frequency that gets nulled from phase cancellation (makes it less obvious and easy to treat). From there, you can do your best to treat that null, if possible (such as acoustic foam on the walls the speaker is on). The value of your time is also quantifiable. However, there are a few things to keep in mind that will affect your inquiry.

We were quite impressed with the build quality of the Pyle PSTNDW15 speaker wall mounts – they are relatively easy to install over wall studs and secure the speakers firmly in place.

It also comes with a solid-steel pin which serves as a safety stop for your speakers. We were able to mount two heavy public announcement speakers on these wall mounts and they are also easy to unscrew after use. We liked the fact that these speaker wall mounts provided some degree of motion including a swivel angle adjustment of 30 degrees and a tilt angle which helps with speaker positioning. They can accommodate speakers with a depth of 30” and a weight of 80 lbs which is really good for a set of heavy duty speaker wall mounts. Installation for each speaker wall mount varies based on manufacturer and design. Tools to install speaker wall mounts include a drill, screwdriver, a fishing rod and magnets (to pull the wires through the wall), drywall screws and anchors, and wood screws. It's a huge step up from the MAT-less R3 (a previous five-star model) in terms of refinement, crystal-clear vocals and dynamism. These R3 Metas are spacious, dig deep, perform admirably both at loud and low volumes (a rare talent), and are delivered with a precision and accuracy that seems to come oh-so-easily to them.
