wall mount brackets for TB2+

Hi, all,

Just wondering if the wall brackets that are suitable for the PMC DB1 speaker can be used for the TB2S+. I'm contemplating using a pair of these as surrounds in a theatre I'm putting together and I'd like to mount them on the wall.

Many thanks!

I'm afraid not.  The DB1+ has mounting holes on the back for attaching the bracket.  The TB2+ doesn't.

Which begs the question.  How does one mount TB2s in the back for surrounds?  I guess you could use the higher 'Pro' stands, but, is there a way to wall/ceiling mount them.  For ceiling a center channel orientation would probably work better.  About to start getting into a Condo, so wondering what I should go for.  
Also, where can we get the wall mounts (already have a pair of DB1Ss), from our local dealer, or direct from the distributer?

I used Linn wall brackets (Brakits). They are very strong and will support the heavy TB2s.  My TB1s have been up 5 years without a problem.

To avoid damage by screwing the brackets directly to the cabinets, I made up two 10mm MDF or HDF plates to pick up the mounting bosses for the PP60 amp, and screwed the bracket to the plates.  I had to cut a square hole in the plates to allow access to the terminals.  Best to find the centre of gravity on the back panel and mount the bracket at that point.  Get some help when you fix them to the wall - they're surprisingly heavy when you're trying to line up the pivot bolt and hole!
