Hi Nialo.

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

Unfortunately Monitor Audio don't make brackets for this series and we have sourced a bracket (not an expensive one) but the bracket does not come with the correct screws, so we are in discussions with MA to find out what screws we need or if they can supply them.

You can mount them on standard speaker stands if you like as an alternative.

I will hopefully have some movement on this in the next week or two.

Cheers

I've copied this from AVForums. A big oversight from MA if you ask me.

You may have sorted this out by now, but if not this may help.

As you know the Vectors have a single point fixing, on the rear, which requires a specific bolt (not supplied by Monitor Audio).
The bolt you will need is a 1/4" UNC 20 TPI Thread ... length needs to be 3/4". This is an American standard and not easily obtained, on the High Street in the UK, as most bolts available will be Metric.
I managed to get mine from a local specialist, but if you search on ebay, you should find them.

I was recommended the Alphason AD100 Stands, by Peter Tyson (available elsewhere too), which I am using for the fronts. To be honest though, although they do the job and look decent, they are a bit flimsy for my liking.
The choice of stands is a bit limited though, as the fitting bracket must clear the speaker terminals, which are very close below the fixing hole, so not leaving much clearance. This rules out a lot of stands.

I have mounted the rears, using wall brackets, which I feel are more solid, but whichever route you choose, you will need the bolts mentioned above and will need to check out the fixing bracket design. The bolts supplied with the stands are no use.
