In Reply to: So... how would you hang a pair of B&W 805 without damage? posted by David S. on June 21, 2012 at 08:22:49:
Geez, he's putting these in his SHOP. It's not like this is going to be the best of the best audio experience rooms out there.
Personally, I'd put them in the bedroom or bathroom as a second system and listen to the wife cry about it, while putting something simple in the shop.
That said... I did something similar once. I built a base a bit larger than the speaker. Put some trim around it so the speaker could not slide off the bass. I suppose you could put a cloth strap around it if you really felt nervous about it falling down (mine never had any issues)
In my case, they were my front effects speakers that were supposed to be above my main speakers (LaScalas)
I took a piece of plywood, cut it to fit the base of the LaScala while also extending behind them maybe 5". I configured with 3/4" pipe, a "wall" sconce that was mounted on the plywood (which was screwed into the bottom of the 100 pound speaker to hold it) and I had a 'T' at the bottom of a 5-6 foot length, another 'T' at the top. I ran my speaker wires inside the T, up the pipe, out the top and plugged into my speaker. I mounted the speaker platform on the top of the pipe.
In my case, regardless of where I aimed my speaker, my front effect was always above it and pointing in the right direction. Worked like a charm.
In your case, I'd do something similar but instead, hang from ceiling or wall, depending on layout.
