I stumbled on a set of P45s this weekend without the hardware. Seem to be in great shape but I am having a hard time finding information about how these gems mount to the wall. Even a photo of the hardware and maybe some dimensions so I can Fabricate new ones. Better yet, if anyone has some laying around?
Thanks
Welcome to Beoworld !
Brackets are ready at the back for both horizontal and vertical hanging.Put two solid screws in the wall and hang the speakers like you would a painting.There's no addtional hardware.

Can I assume this is also true of P30s?
Yes.
The speakers has 6 plastic inserts, you can hang the the speakers with any 2 of these,using top or middle you can change the angle, depending on listening position, make sure to get the speaker as close to the wall as possible, this will give the best reflection (best sound).
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
And don't fit them too high up on the wall.Ideally (sonically), they should be at ear-height when you are sitting and listening, which normallyresults in a surprisingly low mount.
Dillen:Yes.
Sorry for the intrusion but I have a pair of P45 which I want to start using again :) Do you know where I could buy the cables which on one side plug into the speaker and on the other into a System 5000 receiver?
You mean with DIN plugs in both ends? First of all - try asking your local B&O dealer.
- or ask Steve at Sounds Heavenly (just look at the ad below)
Btw... Doesn't B&O have a factory in the Czech Republic..? Maybe you could ask them... (or maybe not. They're probably too busy fixing the Avant assembly line)
No -better ask in a B&O shop - or Steve.
You can buy the 2 pole DIN plugs for both sides of cable in any electronic shop, also in Conrad or even OBI, Baumax, Bauhaus...
