    I have these mounts and I'd say they are high quality. Mounting is easy...two screws into a wall stud. As Viper mentioned, which speakers you plan to use would help, but the mounts are fairly versatile.

    They are awesome. Work well and very versitile...

    Do not screw into your speaker though. If you think you have to - ask for help before you break out your screwdriver.

    Center............Polk LSiC (Crossover upgraded)
    Surrounds.......Polk LSi7 (Gloss Black - wood sides removed and crossovers upgraded)

    I use them for my RT25i and a set of large Mirage bookshelf speakers.
    They are very heavy duty and can hold just about any bookshelf speaker. I recommend using more than 2 screws to mount though. I think there are holes for 4 screws. I used all of them. The base clamps the bottom of the speaker pretty well. They recommend **** the speakers to the base, but I didn't do that. I used a few pieces of blu-tac to stick things down and help eliminate vibrations too.

    IMHO, these are about the best mount out there for large bookshelf speakers. The only drawback is they do not angle down very much. I think the max is only 10 or 12 degrees down. If you mount them too high, you won't be able to fully aim them down to your ears.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    I have a pair of them that I use for my fronts. I love the fact that you don't have to drill into the speakers to use them...plus they're very adjustable. You can get them to just about any angle you could possibly need.

    I have two pairs of these mounts and like them a lot. My speakers have some curve to the cabinet so they don't fit perfectly into the mount. But, Doro gave me the recommendation to use fishing line to secure the speaker. So i put a few loops around the mount and the binding posts and haven't had a problem in a year or so. They're very nice mounts.
