A mounting assembly for mounting a device, such as a loudspeaker enclosure, through an opening in a barrier, such as a ceiling or wall of a room, including a support for positioning on the back side of the barrier adjacent the barrier opening, and at least one spring having a first end attached to the support and a second end configured for freedom of movement. The spring is held in a set position by a set latch on the support until the device is inserted through the opening and selectively engages the spring, whereupon the second end of the spring is released to allow the spring force to act on the device in a manner tending to pull the device further through the opening, toward the back side of the barrier, and into a mounted position relative to the barrier. For dismounting the device, the second end of the spring may be inserted into a retaining latch on the support by selective engagement of the spring by the device. The support includes a plurality of support members that are pivotally joined together in a manner allowing the support to be partially collapsed for insertion through the opening in the barrier and reopened on the back side.
