(More customer reviews)For smaller, lighter weight satellites (I'm guessing 4 lbs or less), these are a really good deal. As other reviewers have said, they come with a lot of hardware for different types of speakers, including a key-hole adapter. However, for heavier speakers that come close to the manufacturer's stated limit (8 lbs), these aren't great. I just hung 4 Infinity Primus 140's with these. The 140's are 7 lbs and physically bulky. First, you must get the Allen screws at each of the pivot points very, very tight (without cracking the plastic). The tilting pivot (for pointing the speakers down) is next to impossible to get tight enough to hold a heavy speaker up. When you do get it tight enough, the entire bracket flexes from the torque put on the joint by the weight of the speaker. Instead of letting the pivot hold the weight, I put spacers between the wall and the bottom of the speaker. (This is for the wall mounting configuration.) I'm pretty sure the ceiling mount would be completely unsafe/unreliable for this reason. In my installation, I will likely put a secondary strap on the speaker and the wall to ensure that the speaker doesn't come crashing down if the mount fails (or if one of the joints comes loose). Also, for a heavy speaker, mount these into studs!
That being said, I'm pretty sure these are perfect for small, lightweight sats. My advice is to buy only one and try it out with your sats before you buy a set.
