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

Very nice and easy to install
I'm glad they still had ceiling brackets for a set of AM- 6 speakers.

Bose Bracket bends the Speaker wire at 90 deg
Asthetically i am very happy with the wall brackets design
I bought Acoustimas 10 Ser.V speakers and Bracket UB-20 Series-II.
As per instruction while fixing we found that the Speaker wire is getting bend to 90 deg twice, the cutout/ Slot is made at wrong place. believe me it hurted me lot after paying so much for Bracket. i request Bose to provide us justification why is it so?and speakers wire will not break.
believe me for 1 week i am just thinking to bend wire or not?hence i am not able to install upon bose confirmation only i will install.
in the cost of Bose Bracket there are other companies which provide the Speakers also and after paying so much of Cost if we get the Improper Item then it is not good.
Bose to intervene the Design for Slots location and avoid Speaker wires bending
i am very very big fan of Bose but got upset and unhappy due to this hence i am writing

UB-20 Mounting
Can these brackets be used with standard electrical junction boxes in the United States? is there a diagram of the backing plate?

Serves it's purpose well
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.

The bracket to be optimizef
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

no online installation instructions
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.

Virtually Invisible 300 wireless surround speakers
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.

Single point of failure
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.

UB-20 series mounts upside down on Cube Speakers
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?

Upset Right Now!!!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

Not Compatible with Acustimass
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] DO NOT purchase these with the Acustimass 6 Series V as they are not compatible. The brackets crush the wire and input to the point of damaging it. Look at the photos in other reviews as they are accurate. There is NO alternative for these speakers online from what I can find. What a bummer.

Poor Mounting Solutions
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.

Not a good fit for Acoustimass 6 series 5 speakers
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.
