really cool video, but quick question...Why mess around with the yoke and mount when you could have just bought an m10 bolt or wing nut and threaded that directly through the light bracket to the top of the speaker?

Came here to say this

Appreciate you taking the time to share this. 👊🏼

If you don't have fly points and the top of your speakers are fairly flat you can use strong outdoor use velcro strips (15lb+ hold). Trim them to size and they are very secure. Only thing is there isn't adjustments up and down like it is here when you attach using a fly point on the bracket.

This is just brilliant Joe! Big fan of your ceremony mini dj set up. 👍

Great video Joe! You're always coming up with awesome ideas! The camera mount is a great idea too however you might get a lot of vibration in the video. Sometimes just setting my camera on it's own tripod just near the speaker I get a lot of vibration. Keep the videos coming! :)

Good point on the camera mount! Thanks Danny

This is a great idea! Thanks for sharing. I'm trying to figure out how to do the same thing with my JBL PRX-715's.

I love the go pro mount !

I just bought a couple of M10 Bolts with a wing on top. It's cheaper and does the same thing.

Ya I do that too, it's a bit cleaner looking & less parts.... also there's another mounting point on the handle in case you wanted just 1 light centered

I am running QSC CP8 speakers with a Bose Sub1. The CP8's have a threaded hole in the centre of the handle. I think your speakers have the same. Why not just use that hole to mount 1 light in the centre?

That’s exactly what I do! I have an LED park on each k12.2 and sometimes a KINTA FX. I haven’t risked to try a moving head or similar.

Joe, I don’t like trusses or totems either. My speaker has two M8 threaded holes that I can mount lights too. I would like to do this. I would like one light on top of each speaker. My question to you, what two lights would you recommend? I’m fading away from weddings. I primarily do karaoke and private parties. Please help! Paul

Wow - really slick!!!!!

good video and idea

nice man! if u wanna sell that old solution, id take it ;) or how can i get that small pole for the light? you were cutting an old long stand right? Also, where is that "previous video" u mention? thanks :)

Awesome,... Saved me $$$ and Great Idea...

Why not bolt lighting on handle they have screw hole and that is how I mount one of my lights with a bolt thru they legs on the light

That is awesome, super clean!

I am curious about the next steps, how do you connect the lights, the power cord is 6 ft, Do you use power extension ? Do you use DMX cable ?

You read my mind on that last option, to add a camera mount to it and put a gopro or regular camera, the only thing would need a remote control to run the camera..

Fantastic video!

How do feel about an M10 x 40mm Hand Bolt straight through the hole on the lighting fixture into the fly point?

Great video! Quick question..Does mounting a dj light to the top of speaker ever burn out from vibration?

Can a speaker control a light as dmx ?

My simpler method if anyone's interested: search "stud knob" on Amazon. Place the light fixture directly on top of the speaker and tighten the bolt in with no tools!

Could you just get a stud that has 5/8 to 3/8 then just washer and nut the side to the light?

Cool we use those fixtures to light up our DJ Booths they was evenly and no hot spot which i hate LOL they also make a 100 watt version is that what you are using or the regular ones we use? please post a follow up with some footage we would love to see how this turns out knowing me I would get those clamps painted black LOL love how clean this set up looks.

They are nice lights... you are correct about that... No hot spots. I just have the regular 30 watt version. I bought them used off ebay for under $200 for the pair, still in the box in like-new condition so I couldn't turn down that offer. I plan on getting a pair of the 100 watt versions. I'll be using them on Saturday for a rather tough gig to light. I'll definitely be doing a gig log. It's an outdoor event under a pavilion and they don't want to turn on the awful florescent lights up in the roof. I'll be shooting 22 uplights on each of the supporting poles and I'll have two wash lights on each speaker to light the dance floor and the guests on either side. Should be interesting.

Do you find your speakers tilt by only having one light on one side? I imagine it could look a little wonky due to the asymmetrical weighting.

Only my original K12's do because the pole socket has some wiggle room in it. All my k.2 speakers don't tilt.

You seem like a pretty crafty person. Can you think of a way to mount a Chauvet DJ Gigbar on top of QSC speakers?
