Please see the images of our living room area, Era 300’s were placed on floor behind Sofa on floor stands, made room look untidy, cramped for space and cables etc

Previously had Play 1’s mounted in bookcase on virtually empty shelves thes were less intrusive and better for general music, was persuaded to upgrade to Era 300’s whilst great for Atmos and movies, placement in middle of room is not great for music. Have played around with having them slightly higher and wall mounted and generally happy with sound. Just need some advice on best position to mount as rear left is in a corner and rear right slightly more open location. Aware Trueplay will deal with most of issues. Should I mount at 2m above floor leaving only 40 cm from top of speaker to ceiling so will need to mount upside down. Should they be flat against wall or angled in at approx 45 degrees?

TV and Arc in process of being wall mounted, desk size reduced and Sofa moving back about 1/2M

It’s probably too late since your Era 300’s are Black. However Ceilings mounts for the Era 300’s are an option.

If you had chosen White Era 300’s painting the ceiling mounts white would have also been an option. However the main hurdle is accessing power.

The mounts look nice, if a stud isn't in the right spot a fan support box should work well.

Weight and vibration won't be an issue with these, I've used several for mounting projects and the good quality ones do a fine and invisible job, as well as providing a good spot to bring in power.
