MN Mounting Solutions builds the hardware everything in a cinema room hangs from: wall and ceiling mounts for loudspeakers, aimable, load-rated and calculated for professional installation. Prime Theaters is exclusive distributor for Germany and Austria, supplying home cinema specialists, integrators and trade dealers.
Why the mount is not an accessory
In a quotation the mount usually appears as a small item at the end. During installation it decides how long the day takes. A ceiling mount that can still be aimed on two axes after being screwed in place and then locked saves noticeable time per loudspeaker compared with a construction where every correction means a new hole.
The second point is aiming itself. Immersive audio formats depend on surround and ceiling channels pointing at the listening position. Screw them flat to the ceiling because the mount allows nothing else, and you give away precisely the imaging precision the client paid for. Here, being able to aim is not convenience, it is acoustically relevant.
And the third point is safety. Loads suspended above seating are no place for improvisation. MN Mounting states a safety factor of 7:1 for its systems and grants a seven year warranty. Those are figures from professional sound reinforcement, where mounts hang above audience areas, and they are the reason the brand makes sense in a home cinema.
The product lines
The brand belongs to the MAG group, which comes from professional sound reinforcement and cinema technology. The range is built accordingly: universal fit as the rule, custom manufacture when a project calls for it.
- Wall mounts: fixed and aimable versions, shallow in construction, for surround and front channels
- Ceiling mounts: multi-axis aimable systems for height channels, with defined locking once aimed
- Projector pedestals from the cinema sector, for fixed placement instead of ceiling mounting
- Rack stands and accessories on the 19 inch standard for the equipment cabinet
- Custom manufacture where hole pattern, weight or mounting situation deviate from the standard
The mounts are designed around the common four-hole patterns, which makes the decisive difference in practice: you can plan the mounting without having finally committed to a loudspeaker model. If the client changes brand once more during sampling, half the installation planning does not hang on it.
Typical projects
The standard case is the cinema with a high channel count, where ten or more surround and ceiling loudspeakers have to be mounted and aimed. This is exactly where every minute saved per mount multiplies, and exactly where a poor mount works out most expensive.
The second case is the living room cinema, where the mount should protrude as little as possible. Shallow wall mounts keep the loudspeaker close to the wall, which looks calmer and simply saves space in narrow rooms.
The third case is a retrofit in an existing room, where the ceiling construction dictates what is possible. Here the breadth of the range pays off, because a solution can be found for most situations without anyone bending something into shape on site.
What should be settled before planning
The substrate first. Concrete, timber joists, suspended plasterboard or a metal stud wall each call for different fixings, and a mount is only as load-bearing as its anchoring. Establish the ceiling construction before fixing the positions, and with heavy loudspeakers bring in a structural engineer if in doubt.
Second, the weight and hole pattern of the loudspeaker actually being installed. Both are in the data sheet and both should be to hand before the mounts are ordered. Above the usual weight class, the question of custom manufacture belongs at the start, not at the end.
Third, the aiming direction: note the listening position and the intended aim per channel during planning. Work out where a ceiling loudspeaker should point while standing on the ladder and you will be aiming it twice. And fourth, cable routing, because an aimable mount is of little use if the cable blocks the movement or stays visible.
What we add as exclusive distributor
We match the right mount to the loudspeaker actually being installed instead of leaving you to leaf through a catalogue. Send us the model, the weight and the mounting situation, and you get the bill of materials for the project back, including the cases where custom manufacture is the more sensible route.
As exclusive distributor for Germany and Austria we keep the common versions available and settle custom manufacture directly with the manufacturer. Price lists and project terms are available to specialist companies in the dealer area.
