Do these speakers have an available enclosure box to protect the back of the speaker and project all music impulses down toward the living area?

No, they have plastic on the back. I put some foam on the back to reduce loss of sound to the living area. They really work great for the money.

No they have cone covering. If you cover the back with a box it will enhance the bass too much.

No. The installation instructions call for insulation to be placed over the back of the speaker.

Yes, the back of each speaker has a single-screw mounting slot attached. http://www.onecall.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/700x700/17f82f742ffe127f42dca9de82fb58b1/r/b/rb-51-back.jpg

The speakers I bought (which have excellent sound, by the way), have a built in slot on the back. I just put screws in the wall and slipped the speakers over the screws. Couldn't have been easier. Perhaps the newest require mounts, but I believe they are optional and only needed if you want to angle your speakers some special direction. These are cleverly designed so you have several hanging options without the need for additional mounting hardware.

No, but I installed in a home made speaker box. Used home insulation for acoustics and they sound good.

I have tried both ways, with and without.. really not much difference IMHO.. Bass response seems slightly better with a box but would I go to the trouble to build another? likely not.. If I found one for a few bucks? probably just to protect the backside of the speaker from dust and bugs..

No, not necessarily. In the back of the speakers, they have a hole. And you can use it to hang them on a hook or something like that.

Yes, they have a detachable fabric cover for the speakers! They are very easy to take off and put on.

No, they don't, however, always lower the volume when not in use to protect the speakers. A surge of loud volume could blow them.

The speakers themselves do not. They do have the possibility for an attachment on the back for install. I myslef isntalled two of them (souraound on the sides) using Definitive Technology Pro-Mount 90 - Pair (Black) purchased from Amazon. Great and the speakers have been installed for almost a year now and no hasles to report.

Both speakers have covers. They are just showing you the speaker cone in the photo.

There are slits across the top and bottom for in/outputs and don't cover up the speakers at the bottom

The rear speakers have a round threaded hole in the back if you want to use it but they come with wall mounts.

They dont, they have a hole but is for sound, this are calle bookshelf speakers, they are meant to be put in a flat surface, no hole in bottom no hole in the back

No, there are holes in the back but that is for the air to come out (bass response)... Your best bet (and what I did) is to mount a little metal/wooden plank and put the speaker on top, securing it with some screws at the bottom (you'll need to carefully drill the speaker box)

Yes, and yes. They work very well as rear surrounds. I've been very happy with mine.

They're not a true sub, so I didn't use a box, you just install them like any normal aftermarket speaker. If you wanted to put them in a box I guess you could but I couldn't help you with that. I haven't done it enough.
