Atlantic Satellite 77305018 2 Speaker Stands (Black)

Great stands for cheap (2010-07-26) : 5/5
The speaker stands were easy to use. If you do need to bolt on your speaker as we did, you do have to purchase the porper size screw. Otherwise, very easy to put together, cheaper than other brands, and looks great.
Great value (2010-07-23) : 4/5
For the price these are unbeatable. The casting is a little rough but no real imperfections.

Worth the money I paid for them.

Perfect for the price (2010-07-15) : 5/5
I had just purchased the Denon DHT - 591 BA Home Theater System with the Boston Acoustics 5.1 Speakers and needed a set of speaker stands. I did not do my research and ended up paying close to 180$ for 4 stands from Best Buy. I decided to browse amazon just to see if there were cheaper stands. Well I came across these and after reading the reviews, I decided to buy 2 sets.

These stands are very easy to put together. The hardest thing was pushing the speaker wire through the tube. That did not take that long though. My advice is try to just keep the wire straight and keep pushing. If you push stop push, I noticed that the wire got jammed and I had to pull it out and start again.

I used these stands with the MCS 95 Boston Speakers, these are the speakers that come with the surround sound system, but just in case you have the separate speaker system, I wanted to throw in the model. They come with a screw and plate already attached. So I just used the boston plate and screw to attach the speakers to the stands.

Now with these speakers, they have a rounded lip all around. If I placed the speaker flat, it angled the speakers up once attached. So what I did was put the provided tape pad under the lip so the bottom of the lip is flush with the end of the bracket. You do not need to use the provided pad though, if you secure it snugly it just rests on the edge and does not appear to really do any damage. It worked out fine the way I did it though.

Now here is where I got bit by not doing my research again. These stands are built for speakers up to 2lbs. Well my speakers are 4lbs each. So I was alittle nervous to have built them and then they would'nt work. Well after attaching them I extended the speaker stands to full height and bumped them to test the sturdyness with the heavier speakers. The base is pretty heavy so it takes quite a bit of pressure to tip them over. These stands are placed on carpet by the way. Needless to say they passed the test.

They are nothing spectacular to look at but they serve the purpose they are needed for. For the price and adaptability you cannot beat it. I am very pleased with this product. The users on here put up good photos to give you an idea of what they look like mounting wise, so please take advantage of that. I recommend these to anyone who needs reliable, decent looking stands, but does'nt need the comfort of looks or name brand logos.
Versatile and well worth the price (2010-07-11) : 5/5
For approximately $30/pair (sold in pairs), you cannot beat these. They're great if you want to set up a home theater that can adjust to literally any layout. Standard size fasteners are included. If your 3.1/5.1/7.1 satellite speakers do not exactly fit, it is easy to use velcro tape or other inconspicuous method to keep the speakers easily and solidly mounted. In addition, Amazon delivers these to FPO addresses.
