Default Question about these speaker mounts

I am getting ready to buy a set of Klipsch RS-62's and someone pointed me to these Omni mounts (see link below) Can anyone tell me how these will mount to the surround speakers? I would hate to have to drill a hole into the back of the speaker, but maybe that is the only way I dunno. Maybe you guys can explain. Thanks.

I kind of had the same question as well. I have the RS-35's but all Klipsch surround speakers have a keyhole mount in the back. So the speakers would not be able to utilize the threaded mount...with that said if you are planning to wall mount (opposed to ceiling mount), then just use a screw with about 1/4" off the wall to hang the speaker on using the keyhole mount.

These particular mounts, I believe are mounted directly to the speaker, not using the keyhole mount. This is what I found on another website selling this model:

"Includes all hardware and a specifically selected drill bit to make correct size pilot hole"

Edit:

Here is a link to the picture of the mount to speaker, showing that you would have to drill holes in the speaker to mount.

Im sort of wanting to put them right in the corner of two walls, sort of aiming out, and down; instead of flat against a single wall... Thanks for your comment tho, does anyone else have any info on these?

Read my revised post for the picture of the mount...

I too wanted mounts that would angle my speakers down (since my room is not that big and didn't want the sound more or less travelling over my head). In the end I just mounted them on the wall since I could find no speaker mounts that would seem to work. Omnimount makes some other mounts for speakers but no where in the documentation or on the web site does it state it will work with keyhole mount.
