it will have better functionality.

I bought these to ceiling mount my Definitive Technology ProMonitor 1000 speakers. I got the impression that this wouldn't be a problem as there is a keyhole insert at the top of the speakers. However, the only way to install them is to use the screw hole on the bottom of the speaker. If you're mounting on a wall this isn't a problem, but from the ceiling it means you have to mount upside down. It's not the end of the world, but you might think that since the company makes this mount for theirโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Problems with ProMonitor 1000

I purposely bought mounts from Definitive Technology to avoid a headache, but it didn't help. The Definitive Technology ProMonitor 1000 speakers are quite heavy and these mounts are NOT really up to the task. I ripped out the drywall screw first - partly my fault, but the torque required to adequately tighten the fastener is significant, so you need VERY strong screws. After installation, the speaker continued to sag. Yes, the 1000 is heavy, but it's a Definitive Technology mount, so it shouldโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Confused

Sturdy but with poor paintwork

All 3 I've ordered have a few small scratches and constant small black dots. Perhaps the scratches are due to how it's packed in the box and rubbing against the Allen key. Low quality white paint around the edges. From a distance everything looks fine. They share the same design (copycat?) as the Omnimount 20 series mounts, except the Omnimount is 3/8"-16 threaded with stainless steel (stainless steel) fasteners and these are Definitive Technology 1 threaded /4" Has. -20 with standard metalโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful

Works well with Sonos P1 speakers - with some caveats

I bought these to wall mount a pair of SONOS PLAY:1 Compact Wireless Music Streaming Speakers - (White). They were cheaper than most other mounting options and received decent reviews. However, I would happily spend the extra money on a more flexible mounting solution. Don't get me wrong, you can move the speaker around, but you have to be careful of the stress you put on the connector as you do so. Pro mounts are good for the money and do the job. In hindsight, they're just not as flexible asโ€ฆ

Pros
  • As everything before
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

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 toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable
