PERLESMITHSpeaker Stand Adjustable - Extend 20" to 44" - Holds Satellite Speakers & Small Bookshelf Speakers up to 9 lbs, Floor Stands Compatible with Sony Bose Polk JBL Yamaha and Others - 1 Pair

Well, I can’t imagine many stands are easier to assemble than these. I can’t vouch for them on larger speakers, but for really small speakers these fit the bill perfectly, at least for my personal needs.1. Inexpensive but decent build quality2. Tallest I could find, given my speaker size and price range3. Floor base size and overall stand design allows close placement to walls4. Stand poles are robust and fit together well with no wobble (as opposed to being thin and shaky, as were the many other small pole-based stands I previously tried and returned)5. Base is sturdy enough, weighted about right to eliminate excessive wobble with SMALL speakers without weighing a ton.6. Easy assembly with multiple mounting options.7. At least in my case, they arrived with no missing parts, no misaligned holes, no stripped threads.First, let me stress that I used these with SMALL speakers. I paired them with the old Energy Take Classic 5.1 speakers that are ~4” width and depth, ~7” tall. I would NOT use these stands for speakers much larger/heavier than those. I used the horizontal, bottom-of-speaker mounting plate to affix each speaker directly centered over stand poles (as opposed to the L-shaped key hole option for rear speaker mount, also included). Rear mounting the speakers will probably shift their center of gravity off pole-center for all but the tiniest of speakers. I wouldn’t recommend that method, but I didn’t try it, it might work just fine for you. The keyholes in my speakers were too small for the included keyhole screw, anyway. The included under-speaker-bottom mounting plates are small enough to be fully covered by most any speaker without any speaker overhang. The installation pack comes with double sticky sided sponge/felt pads, cut to exactly fit the contour of the base mount plates and has precut screw holes matching those in the mounting plate. You’ll need to supply your own screws if drilling your own holes into your speakers. I wouldn’t use the sticky felt as your only means of final mounting. I think they’re included just to help you keep speakers stuck in place while drilling holes into speaker bottoms and to prevent sonic vibration after final speaker mounting with screws. I wouldn’t trust the sticky felt pads as the only means of attaching my speakers, but you might get away with it if your speakers are tiny and you never bump your speaker stands with any great force.A tri-foot base will never be as stable a four footed base, or a single flat base, but this one is plenty stable for small speakers centered over the speaker pole. The tri-foot base is part of the design-plus that allows close placement to walls, so for me it is an acceptable, minor trade off in form and function. All in all, the base is stable enough.I can’t vouch for the other mounting options I didn’t use. I absolutely would NOT use these stands for heavy speakers, but if you have small speakers of a size and weight to the ones I mentioned above, and you use the bottom-of-speaker mounting plate, these are about the best option you’ll find on amazon at this price point (probably much higher). If you have kids or larger pets that will bump them often, you might want to rethink speaker stands of any kind because there are no stands that can’t be knocked over unless they’re bolted to the floor.Here are a couple mounting tips, should you decide to purchase these speakers:Mounting Tip 1 (for base plate/sticky felt option):Put small strips of masking tape (or similar) on the bottom edge of each speaker side and face before final mounting. Temporarily place speaker in position, on mounting plate (without sticking the sponge/felt pad down yet, or peeling off sticky side protector sheets). Center each side of speaker to pole, by eye. Use a sharpie/marker to mark the tape at pole-center of each speaker side/face. Remove speaker, apply sticky pads to mounting plate. Sit in a chair (or on a stool) in front of the stand with mounting plate at eye level, close enough that you can lean comfortably to see tick marks on tape of each speaker side. Grasp the speaker pole with fingers of one hand as close to mounting plate as possible, one thumb sticking up. Use that hand to steady the pole. While lowering speaker on to sticky pad, use your thumb (now sticking up) as a lever to partially rest the speaker on and to aid in physically guiding the speaker down as you align the center marks you made on the tape to the stand poles. At the same time, use the other hand to hold most of the speaker weight, and slowly lower the speaker onto the sticky pad using the tick marks you made on the tape on each speaker face to line up speaker center to pole. If you drill into your speakers to use screws as well, you’ll still want to press down a little on top of your speaker to keep from pushing the speakers off the sticky pads while drilling from underneath.Mounting Tip 2 (to base plate, no drilling):If you don’t want to drill into your speakers to use the base plate mount, and you don’t trust the included sticky pads to be sticky enough, you can use an alternative attachment method. But honestly, who cares about tiny holes in the bottom of your speakers? It’s the bottom, for Pete’s sake! No one will see them, they won’t hurt or effect speaker performance, and your speakers will never fall off the stand, even if you knock the stand over (unless they physically break off and tear out the screw holes). However, if you’re squeamish about drilling into your speakers, you can purchase Dual Lock strips instead of using screws or trusting the sticky pads. And no, I don’t work for the Dual Lock company, but that stuff is da bomb. (Aside: If you’re a guitarist with a pedal board and you aren’t constantly rearranging your rig, you really want to try Dual Lock). In my book, Dual Lock is a superior alternative to Velcro, if your goal is a kinda-permanent fixture that is rock steady and stuck together like it’s welded... until you don’t want it to be any more. When you want to unstick it, it comes off, but only after no small amount of tugging. I’ve found the adhesive bottom side stays stuck, but peels off when you need it to without damaging surfaces. Instead of “hook and loop” that require male and female strips, its a one part system made of strips with sticky adhesive on the underside (like Velcro) but uses a single type of latching system. The mounting strip (one type used on both things to be stuck together) is covered in tiny interlocking plastic “mushrooms”. Dual Lock, in my experience, has far greater “grab” than Velcro, is a one part fixture instead of 2 parts, and doesn’t wobble around, back and forth like Velcro does. The adhesive side sticks firmly to most surfaces, and stays put even when yanking the “mushroom” sides apart from each other, but doesn’t damage or leave residue when removed. The downside: Once you press two pieces of Dual Lock together, they ain’t comin’ apart without a fight, but that’s what you want anyway. Bigger downside: The stuff ain’t cheap, but it costs less than replacing speakers that wound up in a damaged heap on your floor.

Easy to assemble and look nice. The stands go nice and high which what I was looking for. I am using these for some rear speakers in a surround system and wanted them to be at head height for someone sitting in a recliner type chair. These are perfect for that. I like that there are a number of mounting options and screws provided to fit various speakers. My speakers are relatively small so I did not want a stand with a big speaker mounting plate that would stick out and look odd. With these stands you can connect to the back of the speaker (or bottom) threaded holes and you don't even see the mounting plate - looks nice an clean. My only minor issue was that the included screws that happened to fit my speaker were a bit too long (some of the other thread types were supplied in both short and long versions) so I had to cut them shorter - but it worked, maybe would have been an issue for someone that did not have the tools to do this nor the knowledge of how to do this. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

Setup was easy and the telescopic feature works well with no slippage. The base is heavy enough to prevent tipping. There are enough variations of hardware provided for most configurations of speaker, almost…. The rear speakers of my Hisense AX5125H system have the A/C plug exiting at the rear, CENTER of the speaker. Unfortunately, the pole of the stand also comes up the center (see pics). I was able to use power cords with 90 degree ends to make it work, but the speakers must slant slightly upwards. Not a huge deal, but not optimal, either. Another drawback is that the poles are such a small diameter on the inside, that no A/C plug can be run through it. Again, it works, but i would have paid a little more for a set of stands that didn’t have these issues.

These speaker stands are great. I bought 2 (each comes with a set of stands) of these for a total of 4 stands. I bought 1 (set of 2) first, I liked it so much, I bought another one (set of 2). I wanted to mount my Yamaha 5.1 speakers (FR, FL, SR, SL) on these that way the sound waves originate at about 40" from the floor (Seated Ear Height). The only issue I ran into was that my Yamaha speaker take 1/4-20 1/4 to 3/8 Inch long screw and the ones provided with these speaker stands are 1 inch long, I tried to use up all the washers that are provided with the speaker stand hardware kit, the speakers would still not be snug, so I drove over to the nearest Home depot and got my self 4 of the 1/4-20 1/2 Inch long screws and used 2 of the 4 thicker washers (on each speaker) that came with the speaker stand hardware kit to make it work.The speaker hardware kit is well laid out into individual sacks and labeled. The instructions to assemble are pretty straight forward. I think figuring out which combination of the brackets and screws works best for your speaker system will be the hardest. Once you have that figured out, you should be able to install each of the other similar speakers in less than 10 minutes each.The only other point to note here is that the 3 pronged foot of the speaker stand takes up to 8 Inch on each of the foot, so some may want to be aware of this fact during their purchase. For me it works fine.Definitely recommend this speaker stand.....

Worked for mu speakers after buying 3 different ones! I'm very happy with the sturdiness of the stands plus I could hide the cords. Love these so far

Stable , easy to assemble and well constructed.

well made, easy to put together
