suspending monitors from the ceiling

Maybe wifi solar powered would work.

Fuzztone you are taking it to another level.

I would put them on Townshend Podiums suspended from the ceiling. Hopefully we are taking about a suspended ceiling. Otherwise I would first suspend a ceiling from the ceiling, then suspend the Podiums and finally put the speakers on the Podiums.

I do wonder if this will be enough or if it will be better to suspend the listening chair? In any case I would suspend disbelief, and can't help but wonder what will happen next? The suspense is killing me!

They use to do Bose 901s suspended. Is that telling you something?

I've seen those thing hanging all around the top of a skating ring. Some one broke in a stole them. Stupid idea. First rule: One ton speakers will slow down the riff raff.

1972 or 4 or something.. That was funny.. They rolled the old VOTT back out.. Worked perfect..

What is the difference between suspension and springs which allows movement in all directions? Townshend's platforms come to mind.

I don't know Townhend's products but here are the requirements for a great speaker stand:

1 - Prevents the speakers from coupling to the floor, and creating a new sound source in the floor.

2 - Fixes the speaker cabinet in 3 dimensions so it is impossible for the drivers to move them.

#2 is why several audiphiles have reported good results simply putting 10 lb weights on top.  #1 is often well achieved by minimizing the surface area contact from the speaker to the floor, or bookshelf.
