SANUS SYSTEMS BF-31B Wood Speaker Stands Reviews
Of course, that would drive up the price & the reason I bought these was a bang for the buck reason. I found the neoprene squares comical, threw them away, and used carpet tape instead to secure the speakers to the stands. I would have preferred wall mounts, but my fiancee didn't want me putting holes in the wall. In that sense, these stands do the job well.
I don't really like the way they look, or any speaker stands for that matter, but they are very functional. Overall I'm happy with these stands as a solution. I didn't feed the cables through the top of the base because they don't work with the Tannoy speakers I'm using. Carpet tape is a good solution because it keeps them in place but you can take the speakers off and put them back without trouble.
Do not over tighten the screws as they will easily strip the particle board. I would buy them again, but I wish they had a natural wood finish. I can't comment on the carpet spikes because we have hardwood floors in the living room and I never used them.
Otherwise, the speakers slide on top of the stands and will easily fall off if bumped into. These speaker stands are functional. I'm not fond of the black particle board look, mainly because it screams 1985.
I have to admit my speakers sound better since they are away from the walls. The stands are easy to assemble. I like the panels you pop in the back to dress the cables.
I am of the philosophy that the speaker stand should never cost more than the individual speaker it is holding so this one fit the bill. and the layout for the speaker wire hiding makes no sense. But it does get the job done if you need them. Yeah they have some cheap materials in them. (IE the speaker has to sit on the actual wire in some cases to get it to the hole below it. It also was annoying to assemble and took multiple tries.
I've had these stands for about a month now and they're just fine. For the price, you really can't beat 'em. But these look good and hold my speakers so, there ya go. I have no idea why speaker stands are so expensive when there's practically nothing to them. I have them on hardwood floors so no need for the carpet spikes. If you want to run the speaker wires through the holes in the base you'll need to apply some felt pads or little rubber feet or something to get the base slightly off the floor.
They look great and at the price they are hard to beat- strongly recommended. The speaker stands are easy to put together and are very sturdy.
If you have a bigger budget, I'd research and go with a more expensive stand. Everything went together pretty easy. I am happy overall with them.
I didn't put the slats on the back to hide the speaker wire, tape works just as good. Stands look good. SANUS SYSTEMS BF-31B Wood Speaker Stands Bought two pairs of these to highten my bookshelf speakers.
Some cracks in the wood when tightening the srews. If you're on a budget, these stands are perfect for the price.
Spikes are too big and couldn't get two stands through the carpet into the floor.
