I need some help. With some bookshelf mounts for a dolby atmos application.
My wife accidentally ordered a 2nd set of tower speakers. (YAY ME) So now I'm considering moving from a 7.1 with two towers and 4 bookshelves to a 5.1.4 set-up. With 4 towers and 4 bookshelves.
For height channels I have four Polk S15s. (13 Pounds) My problem is they only have a keyhole mount. so for as use as height channels I'm stuck with them pretty much upright sending out sound horizontally.
I was thinking of running them as front and rear heights. Basically wall mounting them as high up as possible, then angling them down... But I can't find anything that...Is in stock, Does that with a keyhole mount, can support the weight, and will also let me position them the way I want... Ideas? (need at least 30 degrees tilt to get the tweeter positioned my way)
Until I can get this figured out I have it configured as a 7.1.2 setup with front heights.
CONFIG: S55 L/R, S35 Center, S50 Side Surrounds, S15 Surround Backs, S15 Front Height

These R
Rockville mounts barely fit my S20's, but the S15's would bu no problem. They're rated for 50 lbs, mut they're mounted in concrete so they're not going anywhere. I can hang from them, they are solid.
