Can these be easily mounted to dry wall? How heavy are they and will they require a solid stud mount?

Easily mounted to drywall with good drywall anchor fasteners. They are not too heavy to mount. Have had them mounted to the wall for about a year or so. Great product.

The side pair of mine are mounted with the drywall anchors they sell at Home Depot, the metal ones that hold like 40lbs.. the description will have their weight, but I guess it depends on if there was something previously in the drywall, as to if it will hold or not.. sometimes patching isn't strong enough.

I did not mount mine. I have them in high bookshelves so I am not exactly sure what the mounting apparatus looks like, but they are definitely wall mountable. Google images of the speaker and you will see pics of such.

Yes I mounted mine in dry walk using 3 50lb capacity drywall anchors but I built my own brackets.

They can be mounted to a wall using the attached mounting hardware on the back of each speaker. They weigh about 8 to 15 pounds each (please check BIC specs for specifics since i cannot move mine to a scale for weighing) and should be mounted in a manner that will support a powered speaker that will vibrate and generate sound. These are hefty speakers and required a solid mounting method. I would recommend accessing a stud for secure mounting. I would also suggest some sound isolation material between the speaker and the wall (Foam or paper/cardboard that will minimize sound vibration through resonance). I would not do this in an appartment or next to a bedroom because you will hear the speakers through the wall. Due to the quality and punch from these babies, there will be sound transmitted through the wall if mounted that way. I have mine on speaker stands at ear level to address this issue. I also have a rear center speaker that i may actually mount on the wall. the wall will (in may case will most likely act as a sound resonator based on my room configuration. Good Luck with some great speakers.

I have mine mounted on dry wall using anchors that screw into the wall. No drilling required. You can get them from Home Depot or lowes. Easy to use.

I wouldn't recommend attaching that much weight to the drywall. I'm using some small JBL's, and made sure they were anchored into the studs.

Yes, you just mount these to either stud or drywall with an anchor. They come with rubber stops you can add on the back to level out the speakers.

It will work in dry wall. I still would try to get at least 1 screw into a stud just for added safety.

I mounted mine on a hallow dry wall. If i remember correctly it comes with several types of anchors for different types of walls.

Yes, they can! Mine came with the hardware to mount them to a wall. They are very light and the hardware is minimal so it would probably leave little damage to your walls as well.

You don't necessarily need to find a stud, but I would not install them directly into the drywall. Whenever I install something that is going to have some wear and tear, or some pressure, I use EZ Lock Twist and Lock Hollow and Drywall Anchors. I get them at Home Depot. They're my favorite anchor. Kind of a pain when you're ready to remove them, but they have a lot of strength and can withstand some pulling and tugging.

Yes find a stud it's to heavy for just sheet rock dry wall only.... It's a good product make sure all screws are tight to make shelves stable and not wobbly.(this is a must) I have 4 (3 tier) one holds play station, DVD player, wii, cable box, works well for my family

I would not rely on the anchors in dry wall. Make sure you have a stud somewhere behind where you will install it. The plate is large enough that you should find at least 1 stud. Out of the 4 bolts, make sure 2 hit a stud.

It would be very heavy to mount on a wall. You would need to be sure you have a stud to mount into.

These come with drywall anchors, but if you have the tools and supplies to sink screws or supports into the cement wall in a way that holds the weight and won't slip, it should be fine.

You can install in drywall if you use better anchors than provided. get molly bolts or better toggle bolts. You can support 50lbs+ using good toggle bolts - you can get them from your local hardware store.

The hooks are very study so, yes, I think this would work. However, I would definitely make sure they are attached to a stud, not just drywall.

I'm not sure on the exact weight but they seem to be pretty sturdy to me. I actually mounted mine to a painted piece of board which I then screwed into the wall studs. It is pretty snug.

I used drywall screws (instead of the screws that come with it), and it seems pretty secure in the drywall.The mounting holes are about 28" apart, so you will not be able to get both sides in a stud. It's not that heavy though, so it shouldn't be a problem.

You don't need studs, but use Wingit hollow wall anchors that are rated up to 300 lbs. You can find a kit with a ceramic drill bit to drill the holes and then use these anchors. I have installed three of these grab bars and they are as secure as if mounted on studs. Search for Wingit online and you'll find video explaining how they work and are installed.

Yes, the hooks are strong and heavy, and as mentioned, just be certain that your stud is solid, and not the drywall screws.
