Is this metal lath, wood lath, or gyp lath? I would be worried
about the installation also. Toggles have the strength, but that
looks like a lot of leverage on the wall.

Ask if it would be acceptable to make a decorative medallion
behind each speaker. I have made some from 3/4" MDF and ply.
Circles and octagons are easy, run a router around the edges,
sand, prime, and paint. They can be painted wall color or speaker
color. These need to be large enough to get to the studs for good
fastening and provide great fastening for the speaker brackets.

I have been asked to mount a set of speakers to a wall. Where
they
will be positioned I am told they can not be mounted to a stud.
But
the downside is the wall is plaster and lathe.

The speakers weigh 15 lbs. each. My question can these be
mounted?

I have already been told, no shelf system or floor standing.
Here is a
link I was given to what would be used:
