Hi All,

I purchased the Enthusiast set awhile back ( I believe two years ago) and am still really digging it. At the moment my HB-1 MK2's are currently on speaker stands, and in all four corners of the room it eats up a pretty big amount of space. Is there a certain wall mount you guys would recommend that I can just bolt to my walls and put my speakers on? Trying to move stuff around and having the speakers off the stands will free up a ton of space in my room.

Thanks!

Will

Hi Will,

Take a look at some side clamping wall mounts such as these: http://www.bracketsandstands.com/AM40_SIDE_CLAMPING_WALL_MOUNT_SPEAKER_BRACKETS_p/am40.htm

I'll second the AM40's. I heard they were good, and I needed some mounts for my HB-1's, but I didn't want to spend the $60 they cost, I thought I could get away with cheaper mounts. I bought the kind they sell at monoprice for $15, which claimed they could hold 30 lbs. In fact, they struggled with 10 lbs and were a disaster, so I just bit the bullet and got the AM40's. They comfortably hold the HB-1's, and you don't even have to drill any holes in your speakers to mount them, unlike all the other speaker mounts rated to hold the weight of the HB-1's (15 lbs).
