Speakers hung from ceiling on aircraft cable.


Opinion question:

We are thinking of suspending a pair of KEF LS50 speakers from the ceiling using aircraft cable. Do you think having them not rigidly mounted will diminish bass? Will the woofers cause the speakers to move?

Back in 1985-1987, I suspended my small Polk Monitor 4As. I used a finished wood base, with 3 brass eyescrews, just bigger than the speaker base. I used black nylon braid fishing line to a brass ring; brass chain to a ceiling hook into the ceiling joists. I had use lateral black line to keep from twisting.

it sounded VERY GOOD! I used a passive subwoofer. 

Imaging was first rate. A very open, spacious sound.
