hanging a speaker

I wish I could post a picture but the speaker will be close to the ceiling and pointing down toward the sofa. For the price of the B&W, I don't need it sliding off the shelf and hitting the turntable below.How come it won't allow me to post pictures?

Hi Lmr -

How come it won't allow me to post pictures?

you can only post links to pictures. Here u go.

Clicking on the audiogon "markup tags" below the white window, shows you the codes that need to be at the beginning and end of the link. I find this is easier to do sometimes in an email or Word software first, then just paste it in.

Hope this helps.Good luck with the center speaker. Love your dog btw.... Cheers

You put a lip on the front of the shelf so the speaker can't slide off.

Lmr, I agree the speaker needs to be angled down pointing toward your listening position, so if you can build and mount a shelf to the ceiling, making the speaker secure is not a problem. Use a lip on the front of the shelf as Zd542 suggests, and the HTM2 has threaded inserts in the bottom that you can also use. These were used to secure the speaker to a stand. See 7b in the owners manual for "FS HTM" listed here,
