Buy: Bose UB-20 Wall / Ceiling Bracket, Black Stand Type: Wall/Ceiling Bracket

I bought this product a month ago and I am extremely happy with it. It looks perfect.

Simple and elegant.

This is an older speaker system part so I was very glad that it was still available and reasonably priced.

mounting bracket

I'm glad they still had ceiling brackets for a set of AM- 6 speakers.

Very nice and easy to install

i had to buy these wall mounts directly from bose because best buy sells the rear speakers for the 700 series sound bar but they dont sell the wall mounts. I do have a sugestion they need to have universal mounts so you dont have to go through the trouble I went through

great wall mounts

According to the site the UB-20 Series II wall bracket is the correct bracket to mount the Cube Surround Speakers that I bought with the 500 Soundbar. However the UB-20 speaker mounting bracket clamps onto the back of the speaker upside down. The speaker wire hole is not accessible. Is the UB-20 the wrong bracket?

UB-20 series mounts upside down on Cube Speakers

I purchased Acustimass 5 speaker with pair of ub20. Bracket q of material and finish is very good, but the previous reviews helped me to sole the cable bending problem. I reworked the bracket on the metal plate (see attached photos). I milled 6mm line from the oval hole for connector entrace till the geometrical middle of the bracket plate. Problem solved. Recomend to Bose ingineers to inprove this detail.

The bracket to be optimizef

Can this be use with Accoustimass 6 series 5 speaker. I still can compatible speaker for Accoustimass 6 series 5

Accoustimass 6 series 5

Can these mounts be used with the latest 201 and 301 speakers ? The would look great in the 4 corners of my lounge.

these look great

I should have read the reviews before purchasing these brackets. These brackets are NOT COMPATIBLE with the Acoustimass 10 series V. With ALL of these reviews I do not understand why Bose have not fixed this issue yet. This purchase was made on 05/07/2018.

Upset Right Now!!!!!

Fine

I bought these about 6 months ago. I used the accordion screws and now i need to move, remove the screws, and some of them won't come out. Also I am having a hard time finding replacements for them.

Poor Mounting Solutions

So I have the complete bose 300 surround 5.1 now and wanted to finish the look off with the bose surround speaker bracket. I love the product and at time of shopping around for best price Jan 2018 I found Bose to be the cheapest by far!!! .Om installation I found it very easy and the speaker come s with several types of fixings to no into plaster-wood-brick/concrete. So you won’t need to purchase any additional fixings. My only advice would be is to try not push the speaker flush against the wall fixing as you will struggle to make that happen(because it won’t) gently place it into the groves of the speaker with about a 2mm gap and it will slot in 1st time.see attached photo as zoom in of speaker to bracket gap, Apart from that 1st class product once again from Bose and extremely pleased with its product, see also my review on Bose 300 soundbar under Nij. Hope this helps. Please zoom

Plaster wall mounted bose 300 surround speaker fit

I bought 5 set of these clamps at an exorbitant price from Bose Outlet itself in India and 2 of them broke while fitting the screws.

Horrible Quality! Brittle Clamps, break while fit

If I need to unmount my Acoustimas Virtually Invisible speakers from UB 20 wall mount, how to do it? No where in the net its seen. Kindly enlighten me ASAP.

Unmounting Virtually invisible speakers

I am having the same issue as the previous reviewer. The hole on the back of the bracket does not lineup properly with the connector on the back of the speaker. As a result, the connector is more or less jammed behind the bracket with the wire making a hard 90 degree bend. We also ordered the speaker stands. These came with similar brackets, but the holes lineup and work as expected. I called customer service last night. The agent confirmed these brackets are indeed compatible. He was going to send me another set to ensure there was not a revision. I am doubting this is the case. Either way I will be following up as this is not expected from a high end product like Bose!

Poor Design

I bought the Soundtouch 300 bar, optional bass module and the Virtually surround pair, with its mount the UB-20 Series II. Installation at first was a real challenge. I cannot get the back plate to snap on to the back of the speakers. I called Bose support who assured me that I purchased the correct accessory and suggested a YouTube video on installation. The video instructions were so easy, it took the installer 3 seconds to snap the speaker to the wall bracket back plate. For me it was a painstaking task, until I carefully slow motion paused every maneuver when I noticed the screw at the back if the plate was not protruding through which was preventing me from snapping tight the speaker to the backplate of the bracket. Bose should make the screw a 1/8" smaller or include a smaller version with the one that was packaged. I didn't use the packaged screw as it would not work. I used a shorter screw which accomplished the job. No review ever mentioned this until I watched the YouTube video and noticed that the screw barely protrude thru the whole, which would allow for a good snap.

Neat Wall Bracket

I bought the Acoutimass 6 system with the wall ceiling bracket in the Bose Store acording to the vendor directions. However, when mounting the boxes on the sliding support the wire is crushed inside the bracket because the hole on the bracket doesn't match the wire output.

Poor seting. It dos not fit

The power cable for the speaker have to be bent 90 degrees twice, because the backing plate has the hole for cables in the wrong place.

Virtually Invisible 300 wireless surround speakers

These take a few minutes to assemble and install the right way but worth it.

Great speaker mounts

I have these in use for my surround system. While on the whole, the brackets seem fine, there is a big design or production flaw. The part that actually clamps onto the post on the speaker should be made of steel. I have had multiple speakers now that have fallen off the wall after I went to adjust them. This one part breaks easily I guess. These are not light speakers, so more work should be done to design the part for strength.

Single point of failure

Can these brackets be used with standard electrical junction boxes in the United States? is there a diagram of the backing plate?

UB-20 Mounting

I got these brackets on 12-6-15. Bose in their attempt to use one set of brackets for 5 different speaker lines, has failed. Due to the way the speaker cable plugs into the back of the Series 5 speakers, the cable gets crimped severely by the metal mounting plate. I am worried that over time the wire will break. There is also a shorter screw (provided) that you need to use, to properly mount the bracket, but the directions do not make that clear. It caused me undo frustration until realized what needed to be done, and switched the screws out.

Not a good fit for Acoustimass 6 series 5 speakers

A contractor installed on my ceiling. I want to move it but can't figure out how to remove it and don't want to break it. Installation instructions should be on line with pictures.

no online installation instructions

One of these brackets was purchased to mount a center speakers above a TV. Bose included all the hardware to mount this easily adjustable bracket including plastic anchors for masonry walls, screws for wood stud mounting and "butterfly" toggle mounting on gypsum (drywall) walls when hitting the stud isn't possible. A small metal, rectangular backing plate with four mounting holes is provided to mount the small, but heavy speakers. The bracket, like Bose speakers, is high quality and includes a couple of adapter pieces to accommodate vertical or horizontal speakers. There is also provided an adapter piece that snaps onto the back of the speaker. This pieces allows you to fully mount the metal plate and set the vertical and horizontal angle of the bracket without you needing to support the weight of the speaker while tightening the single adjustment screw. Before mounting the speaker, a small decorative piece covers the backing plate. There is even thought given to routing the speaker wire through the bracket and into the speaker with small notches and a hole through which you use the Bose style speaker-wire termination plug. Picture instructions are provided for the numerous styles of vertical and horizontal Bose center, front and surround speakers speakers. Of note, the butterfly toggles provided require 1/2" holes. I would guess most home owners/DIY folks have 3/8" cordless or corded drills. This makes it necessary to carefully enlarge the holes in the gypsum just the tiniest bit to insert the toggles. However the screws provided with the toggle are long enough to adjust for 1/2" or 5/8" thick gypsum and perhaps even thicker plaster installations. Keep in mind this bracket is intended for use with Bose speakers and cannot, or at least not easily, be used with non Bose speakers. When complete, the speaker mount is professional looking, matching Bose speakers.

Serves it's purpose well

I'm currently using this product to hold up my bose speaker. Bracket is successfully holding up speaker.

Great holster

Replacement for a bracket that could not support teenager grabbing onto it to stop a fall. Works great!
