I have a pair of Dipoles which I intend to hang up as surround speakers. Having read now the various advise on positions of speakers etc I would however still like to be able to play around with the positions prior fixing them in place. Can anyone share their experience as to how they went about positioning the spk temporarily on the walls (without drilling holes like swiss cheese all over the walls) prior fixing the spk in place? The speakers I have are Paradigm ADP-170.Thanks in advance!

I don't know how large (and heavy) your speakers are, but what I did was make temporary wooden braces, similar to those one would use when hanging drywall, along with extra lengths of speaker wire. By setting the surrounds on these braces, I moved them around all positions on the back and sidewalls, at different heights.I'm using Def Techs BP2s, which are dipoles, now have them mounted on sides directly in line with listening position, 6" from ceiling and walls, using specialty speaker wall mounting brackets.
The ADP-170 is not very large about 12" high. It is also a dipole. Weight is not an issue about 24lb. Thanks for your suggestion. Will consider it.
