suspending monitors from the ceiling


I have a pair of Canton 9k reference speakers in piano black and I  was thinking of suspending them in space via the ceiling.

If this setup sounded good someone would already be doing it. So would this setup mess up the sound ? How? What could I expect sonically? What problem would have to be overcome? 

thanks for you thoughts

Scott22, I have done it. They were 2 way open baffle speakers using Focal drivers. I crossed over to subwoofers ar 100 hz. The speakers are hung from a very sturdy beam using two chains per speaker. The tweeters are at ear level.  The owner is a high school music teacher. He loves it and for what we spent on the system it is killer. The only kicker is I would not want the speaker making bass even if it is fairly heavy.
