Default speaker fixings

Hi,

Im after a certain kind of fixing for attaching small satellite
speakers to a dado rail. The speakers have a 3/8" threaded female
connector on the rear of them. I would like to be able to get something
that i can screw into this female socket and then screw into a dado
rail so that i can do away with speaker brackets etc.

So basically a bolt that i can screw into the wall. Im sure i have seen
them before, with the bolt end of the fixing having a slot for a flat
head screwdriver.


If you screw such a fixing into the wall how are you then going to
rotate it to screw it into the speaker without it unscrewing from the
wall?

I would screw a bolt into the speaker and fashion some kind of slotted
bracket that the bolt head can be slotted into (maybe the dado itself).

Is the dado secure enough to take the weight of the speaker?
