Good stands for your first time

I was searching for a good quality speaker stand for my surround speakers, which weighs around 2kgs each. After a lot of research finally decided to go for this. Product quality, finish, sturdiness everything is good about this product. Extremely easy to assemble and adjust. Received on time in a very nice package. Using it for a week now, no complaints. Serves its purpose and absolutely justifies its price.

These are SO much better than the Pyle PSTND19 stands (which I bought and will now give to someone I don't like), and cost only a little bit more. I put some Klipsch RB-41 II speakers on these to use as rear speakers in a surround system and it's working well for me. I saw them at another musician's house supporting even bigger speakers.

Can't fault them at this price! These are usefully compact but sturdy enough. The heavy bases prevent disastrous toppling of speakers which are securely held by the clamping system.

After taking the plunge with these despite the reviews and ratings I have to say I am very happy with them. On solid ground there are no issues with these. They are holding my 4.5KG speakers with no issues at a height of around 90cm off the floor. On full extension they become very slightly less stable but still serviceable, this is because the base is relatively short. So if you have speakers of 5KG+ and you are planning on having these at full extension you may want to consider alternatives as the base probably wouldn't be sufficient. Overall happy solid product that will serve me well.

I have always been somewhat careful with my purchases, but seeing as many other monitor stands were very expensive, a $70 pair seemed like a good deal. After receiving this product, however, I quickly realized that I'd feel safer suspending my monitors with Silly Putty over a medieval spike pit than I would letting them rest on these stands. The product design and the disgraceful build quality are so, so disgustingly poor that you feel completely scammed. There is absolutely no way anybody can look at these and think "they can certainly support monitor speakers, I should sell them!" No -- the intent here is to take advantage of you.Judging from the product image, you'd assume that the top of the stand, which supports the monitor itself, is a flat, rigid plate that is tightly secured to the vertical column. However, these guys are crafty -- they took their product image such that the tops of the stands show only the side profile, in order to hide the stupidity that would otherwise be visible.The vertical column of these stands terminates in two side-by-side, hollow rectangular blocks made of extremely thin metal that are each about 1.5" long, slightly offset from one another. They're about as thick as your pinky finger. Into these blocks, one from each side, you slide T-shaped blocks of also-hollow metal, which are even thinner. On the ends of these two T-shaped blocks, forming the top of the "T," are two little L-bracket supports (you can see the upward edges in the product image) that are *literally* two inches in length. That is all the support your monitors have: these little L-shaped supports on the left and right sides, each two inches long, supporting a monitor that is likely about 4-6 times as long as these skinny little supports. After you've inserted these wobbly T-blocks into the center of the larger blocks, you "adjust" the length of the base by sliding them in as far as you want, and then tightening a hand screw (also visible in image) below to "hold" the blocks in place. "Hold" is being generous, considering that these things wobble from side to side no matter how tight you turn the screws. If you rested your monitors, side by side, on the flat side of a wooden 2"x4", they would be several times as well-balanced and stable than they are on the top of this joke of a product.To make absolutely sure that you don't buy this, here is a way to visualize what this looks like. Imagine taking two spoons, and placing them side by side, with the spoon ends facing opposite directions, and with about half the length of one handle touching the other handle. Something like this: d...;;;;'''P. Then, imagine taking these side-by-side spoons and taping them to the top of a microphone stand so that the spoons face upwards. Voila! You're done. You can rest your monitor directly on top of the spoons, and have about the same level of stability as that offered by these $70 stands.I won't even get into the fact that the vertical column is composed of one hollow pipe within another to allow the stand to be raised, which makes the whole stand wobbles around this pivot point too. If you held the stand up an arm's length away and shake it, it wobbles itself to pieces within a few seconds. There are candleholders built more rigidly than this.Samson, the company producing these stands, should be completely ashamed of itself for knowingly ripping off customers like this. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that even supporting a textbook on this flimsy piece of junk requires a delicate balancing act, so I don't see how they could offer these for sale as "studio monitor stands" without having absolutely no shame for themselves.

Great
