Hi, is there a way for soffit mounting my B&W 802 speakers? Maybe someone did it before...

Noone with an idea? :-( love my b&w´s....
i don't think it's a good idea, cause 1. you have to tight fit them. would be difficult with this speaker chassis ;-) and 2. because of the size you have to angle them. so, i wouldn't soffit them... do you use them for monitoring? or home cinema? how is the rest of your room treated? i think you have to give some more informations of your room before that question could be definitively answered... greez roman
this is my room. the yellow boxes in the back is my basstrap. Ther was a big room, above the stairway, so I filled in Rockwool and its great working. The LP board in the back has at its rearside Illbruck Foam, and its good for diffusing the waves. Right now I have the B&Ws 802 on floor stands from bricks. I thought, that soffit mounting is maybe better.
