Everything is plastic, except for the hardware, but the mounting mechanics are sound. I used the wall-mount option. There is a little flex in the mounts once attached, but I think this is reasonable for the mount type. If any sag occurs during the life of the mount, they can easily be re-pointed. I used about a 5-6 lb. speaker and the supplied drywall anchors did a fine job. I liked the look of these online even though the pictures weren't quite as detailed as I'd have liked. I wasn't disappointed with the actual product either. I think the provided screws were a little long for my particular speaker attachment, but they are pretty common and I was able to scavenge a set from my former floor stands. There are numerous mounting options and mounting screws and such.

Outstanding product. Comes with all neccesary hardware needed for a wide variety of small speaker brands designed for wall or ceiling mounting. You can configure mounts to point your speakers in almost any direction for optimum sound balance. Made of a very tough synthetic material with a nice flat black finish. Great Product!

4.0 out of 5 stars Round peg in square hole for Energy RC-Micro 5.1, January 10, 2011

Used these to mount the surround speakers of my Energy RC-Micro 5.1.

The mounts look and feel well made, with hard durable plastic, they probably work without need for comment for many speaker brands. But I felt some things needed to be said for their use with Energy RC-Micro 5.1's.

The RC-Micro's use standard 1/4" x 20 tpi screws to secure the speakers to the mount. However, the mounting screw-sockets are set into a square recessed space in the speaker cabinet. Neither the screws supplied in the speaker package (1" length), nor the ones supplied with the mounts (3/4"?)will work as they are both too short.

My first thought was to file down the round plastic screw housing plate in the mount so that it would fit into the square recess in the speaker cabinet. After wasting time and energy filing this down to match the square recess, I realized that I would not be able to access and tighten the allen screw that secures to the cylindrical mounting stem which connects to the wall plate. So I abandoned this approach.

Another trip to the local Home Depot yielded 1/4" x 20 tpi x 1 1/2" stainless-steel screws with small screw heads (the small screw-heads are necessary - and these are harder to find in the store, of course!), these were long enough to secure the speaker to the mount without any filing of the screw housing. The housing would remain outside the recessed space in the speaker cabinet allowing access to the allen screw - not ideal, but it looked and felt secure enough. Once this was done, attaching the speaker to the wall plate was simple.

Suggest you buy a spare set or 2 of the mounts, cheap from some Amazon Marketplace sellers.
