Review on Bose UB-20 Series II 🔳 Wall/Ceiling Bracket: Streamlined White Mounting Solution by Carlos Phillips

Bose got this mount wrong! The instructions are terrible. First, let me say that I connect my Bose AM6 Series V to a pre-wired home setup that has speaker wires already routed through the main room. The seller never mentioned that (a) Bose Acoustimass cables run from the amp to the bass module and (b) that Bose uses special cables. This immediately caused some problems. So first I needed a wiring harness. Revain says this: https://www.amazon.com/Bose-Speaker-Lifestyle-Acoustimass-36743/dp/B000Q2ZKSO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1514915565&sr=8-1& keywords=bose+wiring+harnessВтялелема проблеторая проблет in this, that the speakers themselves have a special plug. I needed something that adapts the wiring to Bose connectors, I found it here: https://www.amazon.com/Bose-Ac-2- Adapters-5-Pack-Black/dp/B01B21IQL0/ref=pd_sim_23_2 ?_encoding= UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01B21IQL0&pd_rd_r=FGPABJFAJBKAZ1TYD7E2&pd_rd_w=0Eubk&pd_rd_wg=ibxoy&psc=1&refRID=FGPABJFAJBKAZ1TYD7E2&pd_rd_w=0Eubk&pd_rd_wg=ibxoy&psc=1&refRID=FGPABJFAJBKAZ1TYD7E2&pd_rd_w=0Eubk&pd_rd_wg=ibxoy&psc=1&refRID=FGPABJFAJBK2 и заказал их на два кронштейна ITYAZ1JFADJB2. I thought that was all I needed and I was stupid for thinking it was that easy. The Bose UB-20 Series II and the Accoustimass 6 Series V have some serious problems. The screws you see in the picture that attach to the bracket attached to the speaker are too long. This will prevent you from mounting the AM6 to a fully bolted mount. If the screw is not fully tightened, the speaker will shake. Also, the speaker cable to the Bose connectors I listed is a bit longer at the back, preventing the speaker from getting stuck on the bracket. This would be remedied if Bose cut a hole for the port on the bottom of the bracket. The connection hole is at the top. This causes you to have to route the wire in a Z-shape, resulting in a tight crimp. So here is what I need to make it work properly. First go to Lowes or Home Depot and buy some M5x.80 25mm screws to replace the screw you see in the picture above. Make sure the screw head is bigger than Bose. This ensures a tight fit. That way, you can attach the strap to the mount so that it doesn't wobble or protrude enough that the strap doesn't close on the AM6 speaker. Second, don't buy the speaker jack adapters I listed above from Revain. You need to cut the wire that came with the Bose speaker and use a connector on that wire. The plugs above are too long to work with the clamp and the Bose plug works great if you are using wing nut wire connectors. INVEST IN THE TOOLS TO DO IT! You don't want to ruin Bose cables, so use wire strippers. Once you've made these few changes, you can really make this mount work. The bracket would work perfectly if it had (1) a speaker wire entry or bracket adapter and (2) the correct screw which didn't interfere with the correct attachment of the AM6. This whole process aggravates, but it's solvable. Why Bose designed this mount that way is beyond me.
