Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Looking for Axiom QS4 v3 wall mount suggestions

Looking for suggestions for wall mounts for the Axiom QS4 v3 that would go well with them please.

The power bracket is the standard mount: https://www.axiomaudio.com/power-bracket

There's also wall and ceiling mounts that'll work which I can no longer find on the site (and links to it from the speaker pages give a 404 error); so if you have a need for a non-flush mount I'd call Axiom and ask about these:

Hmmmm, you’re right… the FMB & FMCB are not currently listed. These were very high quality bracket but also very expensive. I suspect they weren’t a big seller.

In all my applications (M3ow’s hanging from the ceilings on FMBs & M3’s from ceiling on FMCBs) I needed special inserts added to my speakers to use them.
Which ended up costing Axiom a couple of round trips to get right. Perhaps another reason to drop them.

Didn't realize they weren't on site any more. Really glad I ordered a few extra pair for anything I add down the line.

I've gotta believe hanging OWs from the ceiling is an outlier; whereas mounting bookshelves on a wall is much more common and would be bought on a regular basis. Plus, weren't they just all excited about a second "molding" machine? I'd think they could produce them on-demand with that beast.

And Yeah, I have a couple spare I bought too; but just those two, I'm sure I'll be wanting more at some point.

Axiom mentioned they will have a restock of the full metal bracket later in the year

I can use the Power Bracket for a wall mount? Do I need to buy any tools besides a drill?

How high should I mount them on a 9 foot ceiling with windows on the back wall?

The power bracket will work. Try to hit a stud so you don’t have to use wall anchors. Probably about 2 ft from ceiling is where I’d start. If you have a way to shift them up and down without mounting to the wall first you can try different heights and see what sounds best

7 foot high is a good height for ATMOS rear speakers?

You really want monopole speakers for Atmos because they’re directional. Using quad pole speakers like the qs4 the mounting location is variable. You can certainly try them lower but I’d keep them above ear level.

As canesfan27 pointed out ATMOS needs directional speakers since it’s trying to place sounds in 3d space. The QSx speakers are designed for 5.1/7.1 where the intent is to provide ambient surround sound
