Members J.Paul Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 It's getting to where I need some kind of lighting, probably some kind of par can for a wash, but the last thing I want is another stand to setup and transport. Anyone have experience mounting a par can onto your ultimate support speaker stand ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members leftyjay Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 not all, but most small speakers have mounting screw threads on them so you can mount the speakers on ceilings and walls using eye bolts are mounting plates. my Alto and Peavey speakers have them. makes for simple removal at end of the night.

Members Miko Man Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 If your speaker has threaded fly point built in to the cabinet, it is pretty easy to mount individual lights to the points, or you can clamp a piece of 2" tubing (or other suitable light bar material) to two fly points. Many newer speakers use a standard 10 mm x 1.5 mm (M10) threading on the fly points. Mark C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rodclement Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 Carefull with the heat from traditional par cans near speakers! I've seen some tragedies with the plastic composite cabinets! That's why I switched to LED's instead. rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
