Actually, some M60s hung upside-down from the ceiling would be damned impressive surrounds I bet.
Sounds like something for one of the rich fellers to try.

My grandkids would soon learn about circus trapeze stunts with THAT set-up!

Kids are funny; they can devise just about any elaborate method to get into physical trouble with just the simplest of oportunities given to them.

But can't come up with a refreshing new way to devise a book report in the third grade!

Maybe not a sling, more like a safety chain. Run an expanding toggle bolt into the top rear gorilla port then run a thin steel cable up to an eyebolt in the ceiling...

Seriously, though, the M60s do have tapped holes on the bottom for mounting the feet/spikes... why not just take a piece of plywood a couple of feet square (or a wide riser with storage in it), cover it in carpet, and run screws up through the rubber feet into the bottom of the speakers. You would have the stability of a much wider speaker but the good sound and sharp imaging of a narrow speaker.

Or make the kids wear helmets.

Suspending the kids is sounding better all the time.

At any rate, I've got a couple ideas, and a couple smiles as well. Thanks to all. Guy ( although I'm really liking the suspension ideas!! Both types!)

I would also recommend taking plywood and screwing it into the bottom of the m60's. They won't tip over without a huge whalloping.
