Innovation means functionality

On the back of the OWM3 you'll find two sets of 4-way keyhole slots to allow easy flat or angled wall mounting. The center has a built-in ¼" #20 threaded insert which allows optional bracket mounting (such as OmniMount 10.0 OMT) - for swivel wall or ceiling mounting. The 5-way gold plated binding posts allow a multitude of connection options including bare wire, spade lugs, banana plugs or pins. No plastic spring clips to break here!

From a wall to a shelf in seconds

OWM3 Bumps

No tools are needed to transform your speaker from wall mount to shelf mount and back again in seconds with the included detachable base. It simply snaps in and out of the back (as shown by the animation on the left). Two optional bump mounts are also included for mounting on a shelf horizontally.

Big sound for a small price

You might think that speakers this useful and great sounding would be expensive. Not so with the OWM3s. Their affordable price allows you to use multiple sets all over your house, so you will enjoy your music anywhere!

Vertical Shelf Mount

Corner Wall Mount

* Corner placement uses your walls to act as a horn creating an even larger sound image.

Articulating Bracket Mount

Just screw in an optional bracket (such as OmniMount 10.0) to the ¼" #20 threaded insert on the back. You can also use the mounts to hang from the ceiling- great for surround speakers if there's no back wall to hang them on!
