Most PA cabinets come with a stand socket that lets you mount them. With the use of speaker stands, you can mount the horn over the heads of the audience. It will be advisable to get the speakers reasonably high with their horns around 8 feet above the floor.

What is the best height for speakers?
The height speaker channels should be placed in the upper left/right corners of the front stage. Typically, this will be 40-45 degrees off-axis and about 8 feet in height. A downward tilt of the speaker will improve mid/high frequency response and reduce ceiling bounce reflections.
Where should speakers be placed on stage?
If using a single speaker unit, it should be placed approximately 15 feet from the first row of the audience, on either side of the stage, and angled slightly inward (30-45 degrees) so the sound is projected directly toward the audience.
Is one PA speaker enough?
One speaker will definitely work. Whether or not it's sufficient really depends on the size of the room and the type of coverage you require.
