S2 - Desktop Speaker Stands for Small Speakers

I own (2) pairs of these for my (2) desk setups. They are fantastic. They are very heavy and sturdy and do not move even when I accidentally pull the cord with my foot. They also do not move when moving my pc stand setup that is on wheels for easy maintenance. If I spin the pc stand around and accidentally pull too hard on the speaker wire it doesn't normally yank the speakers off the desk. I have my sit/stand desks about 20 inches from the wall mounted monitors. There is plenty of space for the speakers to be yanked off into that big opening but it never does. It never does because the stand is made of exotic super metal from space formed in the heart of a dying star and can only be lifted by the worthy (joking but it seems that way). They are not cheap but you get what you pay for. If you want some stands that are: -incredibly durable and sturdy -give you that upward cant, to align the voice coils of the tweeter and mid woofer so sounds of the full audio spectrum reach your ear at the same time (time correction), and reduce sounds bouncing off the desk causing smearing and excessive bass at only a few frequencies overwhelming the fidelity These are what you need. If you have expensive speakers that have active circuitry in them that time align the tweeter and woofer then I have no idea if canting upwards would make your speakers sound worse or not. Either way, these speaker stands are great!

Great speaker stands for my edifier mr3 speakers. They are white so these speaker stands match, they are made of metal and have a 15 degree angle (non. Adjustable) and haverubber padding on the top with a small lip in the rear to keep your speakers stable and from moving. A great addition to my edifier mr3 powered bookshelf speakers.

As do several other reviewers, I have a set of the KEF LSX II LT speakers on my desktop. They are great little speakers, nearly perfect due to their concentric drivers for a small nearfield system. The main thing missing is a way to properly support and position them, which these Kanto S4 stands do incredibly well. Again, as others have mentioned, they seem designed specifically for these speakers (though they should work well with other similar sized desktop speakers, which there are quite a few of) with the 1/4" mount holes lined up perfectly for the LSX II and LT. The angle is just about perfect for a typical person at a desk so that the speakers are aimed at your ears. The improvement in imaging alone from this is huge. It's hard to imagine the KEF stands, at 6x the price, being worth the extra. One of the best small audio accessory purchases I've made, of quite a few in my lifetime.

I bought these to use with my Audioengine A2+ speakers, and they ended up being one of those small upgrades that made a bigger difference than I expected. Before this, my speakers were sitting directly on my desk, and looking back, I didn’t realize how much sound was being lost or muddied from the positioning and desk vibrations. The angled design helps point the speakers more toward ear level, and it immediately made the setup sound a little clearer and more focused, especially for vocals and dialogue. The build quality is also really solid for the price. They have a nice weight to them and don’t feel cheap or flimsy. The foam padding on both the top and bottom is a nice touch too. It helps keep the speakers from sliding around and does a decent job reducing vibrations through the desk. Size-wise, they pair perfectly with smaller desktop speakers like the A2+. They don’t take up much extra space, and the clean black finish blends in nicely without drawing attention. My desk setup looks more organized and intentional now instead of just having speakers dropped on the table. One thing I appreciate is that they’re extremely simple. No assembly, no adjustable parts to mess with, just take them out of the box and place your speakers on top. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want. I probably wouldn’t use them for anything especially large or heavy, but for compact desktop speakers they work great and feel well made. Overall, these feel like a well-designed accessory that improves both sound and desk aesthetics without costing a ton. If you have compact desktop speakers and currently have them sitting flat on your desk, these are absolutely worth considering.

I have a pair of M-Audio AV40 studio monitors. I'm no producer; I just wanted a pair of really nice-sounding speakers for my PC. I had been propping them up at an angle using a couple pieces of styrofoam that I cut out of a dry ice cooler. With money burning a hole in my pocket, I started looking around Amazon for something that I could use to do the job a little bit more elegantly. I was also having trouble with the styrofoam sliding around on my desk, and not propping both speakers up at the same angle, etc. I found a lot of very expensive floor stands, I found a few desk stands that were too tall, I found professional foam isolating pads that would angle the speakers at around 10-12 degrees (not enough)... and then I found these. They're small and understated, they come in black so that they match the rest of my desk setup, and they angle up at 16 degrees. I grabbed a ruler, measured a right triangle with a base of 7" and a height of 2" between my speakers and the styrofoam blocks, brushed off my trigonometry, did the inverse tangent of 2/7, and got... just about 16 degrees. (Who says you never use math in your everyday life?) Perfect! The only issue I saw ahead of time is that the AV40s have a larger footprint than these stands. That actually has not proven to be an issue; the speakers dwarf the stands, but they still fit and are plenty stable. The real issue is that the stands flexed under the weight of the speakers. I read "Solid aluminum structure" under the list of features and figured they'd be pretty sturdy. The fact that they flexed a little bit means that the speakers are not propped up at the full 16 degrees, so they're angled just a little bit lower than I'd like. But, I was able to slide them further back on my desk, and now I'm pretty close to the ideal studio monitor equilateral triangle setup. And hey, I can always slide some cardboard under the front to prop them up a bit more. Summary: * Better than blocks of styrofoam. * Nice looking, minimal, understated, and other such adjectives. * If you have larger and/or heavier speakers, they may not deliver on the 16 degree angle advertised.

I was a little skeptical if I would notice the difference but it definitely improves the sound of the YU2 by angling the tweeter at your head. Quality is good, speakers don’t shake. Overall a little pricey but worth getting.

I have a pair of medium-sized Edifier speakers that don't need stands because they have rubber feet that protect the desktop, but I'd read that using stands with a slight tilt would improve sound, so I decided to buy the Kanto stands and try them out. I've used Kanto stands for smaller speakers, but I was pleasantly surprised by how sturdy they are; the Edifier speakers are pretty hefty, but the stands support them easily. They are also attractive; they match the speakers quite well. These were a good value for the money.

These stands are excellent! Personally, I use them to do the opposite of what they’re advertised for… I put them on an upper shelf and have them point the speakers downward and actually directly towards my face… I have four speakers (Bose desktop), two at just below eye level on either side of my monitor and the other two with the stands on a shelf above with the stands pointing downward towards me.. The stands are very sturdy and have foam to protect the speakers… good at eliminating buzz as well! Very highly recommended!

Très bonne qualité de fabrication, très stable. Parfait pour des enceintes bibliothèque de taille réduite (Edifier R1280DBs pour les miennes)

Buongiorno a tutti! Pienamente Soddisfatto!!! Sono dei supporti molto robusti e resistenti, mantengono l'inclinazione del monitor. Io ho due monitor per home recording delle Presonus E5, ed ho comprato questo supporto per loro. Cose da sapere: 1. Nella parte inclinata del supporto è presente una gomma a protezione della base del monitor; 2. Sono resistentissimi in metallo durissimo, non si piegheranno mai; 3. Li ho presi per tenerli sulla mia scrivania per Home recording, bianchi hanno anche una bell'estetica; 4. L'inclinazione non è regolabile; 5. E' presente un fermo fisso, con protezione in gomma, per non far scivolare la cassa all'indietro. 6. Un pò costosi ma di qualità. Consiglio l'acquisto a chi cerca un supporto da scrivania bello, solido e poco ingombrante ma di dimensioni giuste per monitor tipo i miei. Giuseppe

Buenos soportes para elevar el ángulo de escucha de los Kef lsx II, buena construcción e incluye tornillo para fijar los altavoces.

Si buscas soportes para inclinar tus altavoces monitores hacia arriba o hacia abajo -este es mi caso- no encontrarás nada mejor. La calidad de construcción fantástica: robustos, firmes y muy bien acabados, además estéticamente son simples y muy bien diseñados. Han sido para unos Monitor Audio Silver 50 que pesan 6 Kg/unidad. Al conseguir el ángulo de escucha ideal, o sea con el eje de los tweeter en dirección a tus oídos, la mejora de escucha es muy notable. Totalmente recomendables. La entrega, como siempre, impecable por parte del repartidor.

Habe die Kanto S4 für meine Edifier R1280dbs besorgt, die ich als Desktoplautsprecher am PC einsetze. Die Ständer passen perfekt für diese Lautsprecher. Sie machen einen wertigen Eindruck und sind verhältnismäßig schwer. Durch die Beschichtung sitzen die Lautsprecher stabil auf den Ständern, sodass man keine Sorge haben muss, dass die Lautsprecher umfallen könnten. Da die Edifier kein Schraubloch an der Unterseite haben, sind sie nicht mit den beigelegten Schrauben fixiert. Die Ständer werten die Lautsprecher optisch weiter auf und richten sie besser durch den Winkel auf meine Hörposition aus. Ich bin zufrieden und kann die Kanto S4 für Lautsprecher in der Größe sehr empfehlen.
