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

I would stick with the system in the deprivation tank- warm, liquid, and all-enveloping.

I would put them on Townshend Podiums suspended from the ceiling. Hopefully we are taking about a suspended ceiling. Otherwise I would first suspend a ceiling from the ceiling, then suspend the Podiums and finally put the speakers on the Podiums.

 

I do wonder if this will be enough or if it will be better to suspend the listening chair? In any case I would suspend disbelief, and can't help but wonder what will happen next? The suspense is killing me!
