Has anyone placed these speakers on stands to raise them to desk level, and what are appropriate speaker stands?

I placed my on a shelf, but I take that an appropriate stand is one sturdy and strong enough to withstand its weight of 16.5 lbs. Speakers should be at ear listening level, while seated, and out of the way from by-passers to avoid bumping into one of them. You may want to take a look at these websites. http://www.amazon.com/SANUS-Speaker-Stands-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B00006JQ5O/ref=pd_sim_e_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1JG2EH4RR4B68HXSKQT3 - http://www.computeraudiophile.com/f12-headphones-and-speakers/stuck-selecting-desktop-speakers-17435/

Am I the only one that finds it ironic that... once you find speaker stands that are of decent quality, you could have just bought tower speakers from the beginning, which would not only be more stable, but would likely sound better as well?

Your speakers will work fine the stands have a 9X9in. shelf. My speakers are 11 inches deep and they sit perfectly the stands are very secure.

No I find them to be unstable with the Yamaha hs80s. If the floor is even slightly uneven, they wobble. I've knocked a speaker off the stand about 3 times in a year.

No, but I think you might be able to get stands that come with pieces to mount on bottom of speakers for the stands

no they don,t nor do they come with floor stands. They are bookshelf speakers.

I would not recommend a speaker stand for these speakers. I tried, and it was very unstable. You will need a heavy duty stand if you still want to go that route. Great speakers!

I used wall mount for front high speakers, and other four (2 front, 2 surround) speakers are on wooden speaker stand I bought thru J&R; and they stand up strong and tall. It's setup pretty well in room.

The speaker stand comes with a couple different sets of mounting hardware. My speakers have brass threads on the back, and they have an L adapter that allows you to mount your speakers. Alternatively if you had the threads on the bottom, they have hardware for that included as well. They have a couple of different sized screws for mounting too. However I cannot guarantee that they'll work with your speakers, but they include a lot of adapters, hardware, and mounting plates so that these stands are universal. You should not have a problem. Another thing, don't use these stands with super heavy speakers, get the model above these they are only $10 more.

Normally, all you do with the tall speaker stand bases is run the wires through them up to the speakers, and mount the speakers on top. I see no reason you couldn't mount the speakers somewhere else, but you still have to run the wires to them and you have to mount them somehow. I think there are holes on the speakers that can be used to with mounting screws.

Hi Steven, Sorry, but your question is way over my head, so I do not know how to answer it. I bought them for my Polk bookshelf-size speakers and they work very well for them. I do think it is a sturdy stand, at least for my use. Maybe you could contact the seller or manufacturer with your question.Amy

These speakers were designed for Surround sound. They come with picture like hangers for wall mounting. Or you could buy mounting brackets and hang them from a wall or fly them from the ceiling. They really should not be used as the main right and left speakers which is probably why you want speaker stands for these? I would buy tower speakers instead for left and right if you are going to waste the footprint space anyway and put them on stands. They are good sounding speakers, just not for what I think you intend?

As cheaply made as they are, I wouldn't think these stands would have issues with any 10" speaker. We use 12's and 15's and they seem to have problems with the weight. The minimum height is about 3 feet off of the ground. Other options, if they don't need to be adjustable, is to look into pipe and drape bases with the short 2-3 foot poles. We use them for some front monitors at shows when they need to rise up to stage height.

I have never seen these speakers in person so I am not 100% certain that they will. I can say that the speaker mounts to a bracket(that comes with the stands) and all you have to do is screw the bracket into the pole of the stand. The only thing is the size of the speakers. Are they heavy speakers and can the stands support the speakers without tipping over. I have the Energy Micro's and they are pretty small. I would say less than a couple of pounds and maybe 8-9'' tall. I hope this helps.

there isn't any place to mount them unless you put a bracket on the back but if they are against the wall the port will be blocked best suggestion would be to make a shelf for them with an inch or two open behind them. these are awesome sounding speakers by the way.
