Speaker Stands & Mounts

Use Speaker Stands for the Best Speaker Placement

You've done the research, the testing, and the shopping, and now you have your dream stereo or home theater speakers. But to get the most out of those speakers, they have to be positioned just right. That usually means at ear height, often spaced away from the wall and at a particular angle. The easiest way to achieve proper speaker placement, especially with bookshelf speakers, is with some speaker stands. Using speaker stands means you can also get your speakers off of shelves or tables that you might not otherwise need. Swapping unnecessary furniture for speaker stands with a small footprint will let you free up floor space in what may be a cramped home theater or listening room.

Match Your Decor and Current Audio Equipment

Of course we all want speakers that sound great, but lots of consideration goes into a speaker's aesthetics. After all, they'll be prominently placed in any serious listening room, and they should look as good as they sound. The last thing you want to do is place a pair of beautiful high-end speakers on some cheap-looking stands. Thankfully, there are plenty of great-looking speaker stands, so you can find one that perfectly matches your decor. Many high-end audio brands will also offer stands that are built to directly match their speakers.

Get Your Speakers up High with Speaker Mounts

In some cases, speaker stands won't be the ideal solution. This might be because you're using satellite speakers that are so compact that they'd look out of place on a stand, or perhaps you just want to remove visual clutter without compromising audio performance. And in a full home theater, you might want to get your speakers up really high for better sound immersion. In these cases, consider speaker wall mounts. These speaker mounts work best for ultra-compact speakers like those used for rear or height channels, and can be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Articulated speaker mounts let you precisely tweak the speaker's position to ensure the audio is coming from exactly the right direction.
