Would I be able to mount a monitor arm w/ desk clamp (Ergotron MX w/ LG 34UM95 to be specific. &gt;30 lb total) on these to use as a pseudo floor stand?

What I have found is that the stands have too small a base to support anything off-center. I re-tasked my stands from holding speakers for my home theater to supports for my JBL Praxxis 14 monitors. With that weight, they are very unsteady and I had to sandbag the bases (not very practical). With a monitor arm attached, I am afraid you would be greatly disappointed when the stand tips and your equipment hits the floor. Might I suggest an adjustable stand with a WIDE base.

Hello, yes this is a great dual monitor stand and will remain stable, and in its position if attached to a sit/stand table. The arms that hold the monitors are adjustable and have the ability to be loosened/tightened to your liking. I have used three different types and this is by far the best. You can mount on the side of a desk or through a grommet hole.

I am using this stand with 3x24" ASUS VS248H-P monitors (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236153) without any issues, and there is plenty of room to tilt them inwards more if I extend the arms further. You shouldn't have any problems.

This stand is only for VESA MIS-D compliant mounting (4 hole pattern in a 75x75 or 100x100mm square). It sounds like you might have a monitor that needs a stand that is VESA MIS-E compliant, which would be 6 holes in a 200x100mm rectangle pattern with 2 rows of 3 holes each. As far as I know 3M doesn't make a converter or different mounting piece for this. You probably will need to look to Ergotron for a desk mount arm that has the MIS-E mount available, such as the MX Desk Mount LCD Arm.

I was able to mount 3 27" monitors in Landscape (measure your monitor width, include the bezel). With 3 27"s, each monitor measured 25.55" across, after it was assembled I had maybe 2cm of space on either arm before the clamp would hang off the edge. If this sounds like your setup, you may want to buy an additional mount (Flush Mount). Please see my review.

that would be fine... not sure with the right measurements... I have the same set up... the arm has 3joints it bends (by the base, on the arm itself and at the monitor connector) you can put the monitors straight or slightly curved like what i do...

I dont think weight could be a problem with these stands. The stand is 9x9 so your monitors would be bigger than the stand.The built quality of these stands is pretty good. You should check if they have stands with bigger dimensions

I dont have experience with that, but if I were you, I would add some softer coushion (e.g. your old t-shirts/old mouse pads) between the clamp and the desk. Since glass is a quite stiff yet brittle material, it should support the mount+ monitors if you eliminate potential local stresses on the desk surface.

I am using with dual 24"monitors but not all in ones. It is a heavy unit so I am thinking it might support the weight but you would need to support arms closer to the vertical support.

There are two concerns - mounting and the spring counter-weight. I think the arm can be mounted with the weight, however the spring, counter-weight may not be designed to hold the weight. I would weigh your monitor first. Regarding mounting it -- make sure you go to a stud. If you place the mount in between studs, I would be afraid that the drywall itself would fatigue -- especially if you extend it all of the way out and start adjusting it. Eventually, over time, when the drywall isn't so new, it could give and break away from the wall. If you really have to go between studs, you should span the studs with a piece of plywood (affixing a 12"x 18" piece of plywood to the studs on either side), and then mount the arm to the plywood with butterfly anchors or similar.

I have a cheap Monoprice "3-way adjustable" arm and it works fine with it. No issue screwing in the VESA mounts. I have three of these arms and they work with my Dell monitors as well.

I don't remember exactly how long they are, but they're lag screws, probably 3 or 4 inches. The weight of the arm plus the weight of the monitor will require a very substantial screw. Mounting into a 1" thick piece of beech wood wouldn't hold the weight, it really needs to go into a wood stud. Or maybe a machine screw/washer/nut combo could work depending on how heavy the monitor is. Either way, you'd absolutely see the hardware on the back side.

the advice is......no. since clamping will require pressure to remain stable, it is very likely that that glass will break. i'm the proud owner of one and i must say it is serving its purpose......and me quite well. i would recommend that you use a wooden desk or platform instead. should you continue with your current configuration, you may risk damaging your desk and monitors!

I just took a look at one of those desks and have to say that the answer is NO.You are asking for trouble as the only way to mount it would be with the clamp coming into contact with the glass somehow.You might be better off getting the wall mount version of this mount if that would work for you?LX Wall Mount LCD Arm

Just wondering what you ended up doing, did you do a pro plus or in the end get an Ergotron arm etc to raise the monitor up ?

Thats about how much is actually clamped onto my desk too, just make sure you use tools to tighten the clamp, I should also note, I modified the arms on mine to go 3 wide, on a 6x6 monitor system

Absolutely not! I mounted 3-24" monitors, that were below the suggested weight limit, and the main support snapped overnight. They wouldn't issue a return either.
