Sir, how did you wall-mount the surround speakers? What materials did you use?

Sir, how did you wall-mount the surround speakers? What materials did you use?

Hehehe.. A simple trip to any of the hardware stores (Ace/Handyman/TruValue/DIY) and a few hours work did it!  ;D

This is just temporary as you might see from my first post. I have plans of having my room renovated soon as I have money saved. This means those surround speakers will be resting on shelves or something more decent looking than DIY brackets.  ;) ;D

For the Surround Left and Right speakers, I used Aleena Speaker Mount (Wall Mount) with short neck. This costs around P400 each. They also have wall mounts with long necks and ceiling mounts (short and long necks)  if you need to mount it via your ceiling. Since my wall is wood, it's easier to bore a hole using a wood screw. The only concern I had was the speaker mount needs to be screwed at the back of the speaker to hold it and I don't want this. So what I did was to use 2 nuts to hold the bolt together in between the holding plate of the speaker mount to avoid moving and added a rubber pad so as not to scratch the speaker. See picture for a clearer picture.


As for the Surround Center, I just bought a shelf (available also in any of those hardware stores) and screwed the support to the wall. The shelves are available in different colors and sizes. This costs around P600 or higher, depending on size and color.



I hope these helped. Hehehe.. it seems another HT enthusiast in the making hehehe.. Hope to see your setup soon!!  ;D ;D

I was going through my stuff from our storage and found a mini turntable:




So, does this mean I need a Pre-Amp for this or can I just use my existing AVR? Also, where can I find LPs or 45s? Thanks in advance!

Hahaha.. the characters are actually Japanese meaning JedTanner's "room". However, the last 2 characters are also Chinese with the same meaning. Thanks for looking though, appreciate it very much!  ;D ;D

Something new to my PC setup... A new 19" Widescreen LCD monitor. Got it as a trade in for P9999.-. The promo runs at any computer shop until December 31. Trade in any working monitor (CRT) and get a 19" AOC LCD monitor.

You can check the specs through here:

Here's how my setup looks now:




Merry Christmas to one and all!! Cheers!

i am not familiar with that tt but from my knowledge what you need is a phonostage which can go in your AVR .  Just plug it in AUX and you should be able to use it.

umm... the characters appear more japanese than chinese to me  :)

Hahahaha.. those characters are indeed Japanese but the last 2 characters are Chinese in origin, which means "room" when translated.

As for the turntable, either the mechanism or the belt is busted but it has power. And it's more expensive to have it fix than to purchase a new low end turntable actually. So I am scrapping the idea of using it. It's just there for posterity and aesthetic reasons. Too bad it's not working coz I remember it sounded really nice and it looks cute hehehe... :'(

Thanks for viewing...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Cheers!
