[QUOTE="Simon Eves, post: 206045, member: 4463"] Has anyone on here (that actually knows what they're talking about, unlike perhaps some Amazon reviews) used this sort of wall-mount for a ~45lb cab. I'd need it about 10' up with a 15-degree tilt. [url]http://a.co/6LwWLdU[/url] [url]http://a.co/gMC2zDR[/url] They look a bit cheap to me, although I haven't found any more substantial similar ones. Perhaps that tells me that I should really be looking into a higher cantilever frame and hanging the cab from three cables? Most of the cabs on my short-list have a second 7.5-degree-tile pole mount hole, which would make it only another 7.5 degrees off the center-of-gravity, although at least one of those mounts expects the cab to have a flat bottom, and I'm worried that 15 degrees is too much for a pole mount. Obviously I would put in a separate safety cable, which could take some of the lateral strain. As I said before, these would be my cabs, and not a permanent install, and I would want the same mounts to be usable for the existing smaller house speakers (although those don't have a tilted hole), which obviously doesn't play well with the cantilever frame idea.
