Floor Standing Speaker Mounts - Pair of Universal White Speaker Stands, Fits Most Branded Speakers, Height Adjustable with Cable Management
P**M
Not Sonos Compatible and not sturdy.
Bought these as cheapest I could find in white.Ok pointers: They’re white, they are height adjustable.Bad points : they are never Sonos Compatible and I wish I hadn’t bought them. The idea is for the cable to sit inside the stand so it is tidy and you just see the speaker and the pole. But speakers which have a moulded end and a moulded plug , these will not work, unless you are willing to cut one of the ends off and then reconnect after threaded the cable through the pole. Really poor as now have dangling power cable wire wrapping around the pole or I could sellotape the cable to the pole. . Any suggestion that these are Sonos compatible is wrong.Secondly, they are so flimsy and unless you plan to tuck them somewhere, never go near them or never brush past them, reaching for a plug socket or something, they will fall over. Not great given the weight of Sonos speakers.Regret the purchase and wish this time I had spent a bit more.

Not big enough
Had to send them back as they were too small for my speakers. My speakers are simple wharfedale DX2 speakers so not really big at all however they were too long 'top to bottom' and kept hitting the stand bar where it first bends.I have measured them so as to help other possible buyers.The key hole on the back of your speaker must be a maximum of 5 inches or 12.5 centimetres from the base of your speaker otherwise the bottom of the speaker will hit the stand pole where it bends.Hope this info helps someone.I therefore can't review how good they are in use but they looked sturdy enough out the box.

Not good value for money, beware!!!
Flimsy construction, and instructions to construct are a waste of time. Firstly, the cables CANNOT be passed through the hollow metal tubes, because of the poor design. My leads are connected to speakers by small 3.5mm jack plugs. These will not "bend" around the inside of the upper tubes. The 2 tubes are connected together by a male and female plastic sleeve, connected by a plastic thread. I've never known a plastic thread to cross when screwing together. On closer inspection, both the "male" threads appeared to have been crushed causing damage, which I had to correct, with a sharp knife!! Finally, the main shaft of the stand has a metal thread at one end, which is secured into the curved metal base by 2 circular washer type nuts, either side of the base. However, these "nuts" are bigger than the curvature of the base and therefore cannot be tightened enough to provide a stable fixing to the base. this in turn makes the whole shaft unstable not helped by the plastic joint in the middle of the 2 metal rods forming the upright stand, thus the comment about the stands being "flimsy" And my speakers are well under the 5kg maximum weight that the stands should take.Lesson learnt, I should not have expected these to be good value for money, at a price of £25.

Pretty good for the price
Bought two pairs of these for the front and rear surround sound speakers as I didn't want to mount them directly on the wall of the newly decorated room.Assembly instructions aren't that clear, but once you've done one the other(s) are easy. The chrome threaded rings that secure the lower upright to the base are a bit of a pain to tighten, I'm a little concerned they might work loose at some point - adding a spring washer should sort this.With regard to threading the speaker cable through the uprights, it is definately a little bit of a fiddle getting the cable passed the bends in the upper tube as other have mentioned. I found the best way was to have the stand in two sections and thread a thin bell wire through from top to bottom, if you rotate the upper tube as you push the guide wire through, it helps. Once you've got the guide wire through the top, threading throught the base is straight forward. Then you can attach your speaker cable to the guide wire ( I used a little super glue and a bit of tape to cover the join) and pull through to the top.In general happy with the way they look insitu, they seem quite sturdy and would take a reasonable impact to knock them over.

A bit wobbly, but will do for a quiet corner
Quite hard to get tight on assembly - a flat nut on a concave base is not a good idea, and the collar does not go very tight. And I would not put them where anyone could knock into them.But they support my LG 8 rear speakers a treat.Though another £10 buys you the Hama equivalents (see my review of these) which are in a different league.
