I need advice on mounting Polk ES20 front and ES15 rear speakers in my new house.

I'm about to move into a new house with a 20x20 area. I've prewired the house to mount the speakers roughly 12-14 feet off the ground. I want to angle them down as well as be able to rotate them. Does anyone have any advice on how to safely accomplish them and with which type or brand of mount? Thanks!

    That's awfully high for speakers to be mounted. At that height, maybe consider getting in wall or in ceiling? The problem with the ES speakers is the rounded bottom. Normally, I would suggest BT77 (https://www.btechavmounts.com/product-range/products/bt77) clamping wall mounts, but I don't think they would angle down enough to sound correct, and they might not grip the rounded bottom of the cabinet. You certainly don't want those falling from that height. Could cause serious injury and/or damage to other furnishings. Maybe Dan @mantis has some ideas?
