Kevin L. Bass Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Greetings! Has anyone wall mounted a RP-450C or 450 CA? This is what I would prefer doing so I will not have to purchase new entertainment furniture. If you have successfully wall mounted, can you link me to the items you used (wall shelf/brackets/etc.)? Thank you in advance. Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TasDom Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I've bought some pinpoint mounts before. Mine were for bookshelf but they do have some center mounts. http://www.pinpointmounts.com/Center-Channel-Mounts_c_33.html and welcome to the forum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad to finally be a Klipsch speaker owner. I haven't received them yet, but they will be delivered this weekend. I can't wait to give them a listen. How does the linked mount work? Do they screw into the back of the speaker? Considering the max weight on the AM45LCR.FH is 25 pounds, two of these should suffice. The RP-450C is 33 pounds.

TasDom Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Scroll towards the middle of the page and click on the product sheet (PDF). They say they are rated to 33 lbs. The bottom of the bracket is extendable to accommodate the depth of the speaker. It's basically 2 L brackets that affix to the studs in the wall. The AM-15 is what you need. http://www.pinpointmounts.com/AM-15_Center_Channel_Speaker_Mount.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only concern I would have is the arm at its maximum length is 11.5". The RP-450CA has a depth of 14". Do you see any concern there?

TasDom Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Personally, I wouldn't be too concerned with 2.5" of overhang and I'm guessing that measurement is with the grill on which is very light anyways. Basically it's just an L bracket and you could buy longer ones at the big box stores for less money. Or attach a shelf to either option to accommodate the depth of the speaker.

Kevin L. Bass Posted June 24, 2017 Author Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) I'm surprised more people haven't chimed in. Surely there have been several people who have mounted the 450C/A to the wall with a shelf/brackets/etc. Edited June 24, 2017 by Kevin L.

Tasdom, Just wanted to let you know I mounted the center channel with the brackets. Seems to be doing well. I ended up purchasing the ones I linked due to weight advantage and being able to extend them out a little further. Thanks again for your input. Edited June 29, 2017 by Kevin L.

Old post but just what I was looking for. I'm getting an outstanding deal for de RP450C, but I need to wall-mount it, underneath my wall-mounted screen, as I have my current centre. How good have these brackets been? Did they bend over time because of the weight? Do you feel "safe" with them? Would you add a second set to make it sturdier, or something to secure the speaker even more especially on the front? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
