I have some Polk Audio TSI 200 I want to ceiling mount for my surround. I am trying to refrain from mounting on my walls as they are real wood and I'm trying to avoid creating holes.

I know a lot of guys use the Pinpoint AM-40B Side Clamping Bookshelf Speaker Mount or similar to wall mount these speakers. Is there anything for ceiling for larger book shelf speakers?

    Omnimount has a series of ceiling mounts. I believe they go up to 30 lbs.

    I'm almost certain the image below is from a forum member here. I plan on doing the exact same thing, albeit with the mount on the wall.

    Used the Omnimount 30.0 A little over kill for these speakers, but they work great....

    I had no idea how big the TSI 200's would look as surrounds, now I just need to buy two more for back surrounds.

    I'm going to bump my old thread back up to try and get some suggestions...

    So I'm finally bought my rear surround, but omnimount discontinued the 30lb mounts!

    I have found Axiom Audio full metal bracket that might have to work... Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi,

    I'm using a pair of TSi100's for my SR & SL.

    I'm looking to ceiling mount them as I can't use side or rear walls.

    So far I've come across:
    -PinPoint Mounts AM-25,
    -OmniMount 10W/C, &
    -OmniMount 20C.

    I've seen the BTech BT342, they're very similar to the PinPoint Mounts.

    Any advise on mounting them?

    Did you drill the speaker cabinet?

    I'm in South Africa so we're pretty limited selection wise. Therefore I want to be very certain before I commit to ordering online.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
