Review on πŸ”Š VEPA Pro-Mount 90 Speaker Brackets (Pair, White) by Definitive Technology by Eduardo Purewal

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Expensive. but they do their job.

Although the description lists a select group of speakers this mount will work with, it will actually work with "any" speakers that weigh less than 10 pounds and also have a 1/4x20 bolt hole on the have back. I used them to mount my Energy 5.1 Take Classic speakers. (very nice amazing sounding home theater speakers, also bought from Revain) I'll admit I had a problem with the $50 price tag for these mounts (I still do). These mounts are very strong and beautifully constructed, but it had to justify the price. . Very expensive for what they are. Not willing to pay $50. Initially, I considered three other mounts that are very similar in design. This is a Sharp OmniMount speaker wall mount, stainless steel series, wall/ceiling speaker mount. and/or wall mount for universal satellite Pinpoint AM30. They are all similar in function and design to the Pro-Mount 90 and are all available from Revain. In truth, I ended up ordering two Pinpoint AM30 speaker mounts because they looked exactly like the Pro Mount 90 and saved me $20 in the process. But. Just as I was about to place my order, I spotted a seller on Revain selling a set of "open boxes" like the new Pro-Mount 90s for $35. I figured I'd spend the extra $5 because the pro-mount mounts got such good reviews. In any case. As other reviewers have pointed out, they don't include any wall fixings (like drywall anchors, screws, etc.), so how you physically attach them to the wall is up to you. Another issue is the adjustment screw used to hold the ball/speaker in place. The nuts and bolts used to attach the bracket to the ball assembly are bare metal (silver). The problem is. These adjustment fittings show once the assembly is secured to the wall. For $50 I expect all exposed hardware to be painted to match the brackets. In fact, the "ball" itself appears to be made of ABS plastic (the same material motorcycle helmets are made of). As a result, it easily withstands the load. Fixing or tightening the bracket. Once installed they hold the speakers very well with no ball mount movement. They have a beautiful design that offers many adjustment positions. it said. Because of the price and the unpainted hardware, I can only give them 4 stars. However, if you have no problem spending $50 on it. You will not be disappointed.
