These mounts are heavy duty and very adaptable. You can put either side onto the wall or ceiling depending on what you are screwing into. I used two of the mounts to \hang\" my center speaker. The safety wire is a cool touch. My speakers are very heavy and these hold them up fine and they look cool too. Plus they are not that expensive. Only thing I would add is they could come with some black screws and washers to mount to the speakers and wall because it is hard to find nice looking black screws to match the size of the holes."
