Love the stands - an excellent solution. I'd like something similar for my RL140 speakers. Any suggestions?

Well thank you! No other suggestions other than the ceiling poles I've been using. The acrylic base (15mm/.6" thick)can be made by any local supplier. I should have another set of poles somewhere...

Nice job Leslie, as always a clean, good look, and sense for details, I love the B&O sign on the base.

Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.

Thanks Soren, I'm full of ideas and like you I like to restore/refurb B&O stuff. Keeps me of the street!

Are there ceiling poles for RL-140 speakers? If so, do you know where I could get them?

I think I have 3 pairs of ceiling poles but I'm not sure if it will fit on RL140.

I know it fits on RL60's...

Did I read somewhere these ceiling poles were not offered for sale in the US? If that's the case, I'll have a tough time finding them here. I would love to know if these brackets will work for the RL140s if anyone knows.

The brackets (the part that grabs the speaker) won't. They are larger for RL140/7000. Not sure about the poles themselves, but I would expect the RL140 version to be sturdier - I have a pair of RL60.2's in the ceiling, and I'm not sure if I'd like to hang double the weight on them.

Twice the weight so I don't think they are suitable.

I found a new pair of wallbrackets (in my closetWhistle) that has more then twice the size of the RL60 wallbrackets. Looking at the type WB140 mentioned on the box this must be for the RL140 and maybe RL7000. They are huge...

They're nice, but I'm looking for more placement flexibility that a stand could provide. Thanks.
