Sanus - Hover Foundations Adjustable Floor Speaker Stands (Pair) - Black

SEE PICS I HAVE ATTACHED WITH THIS REVIEW! Once I moved into my first house, my main goal was to have a home theater set up for my friends and I to enjoy. After puchasing a speaker package, it was important for me to set up the speakers in the perfect position. There are many problems with mounting speakers on the wall... 1. it is expensive 2. its annoying and looks horrible with the wires dangling 3. you are stuck if you ever want to re arrange your home theater Once I started reading about Hover Foundations, there is no reason to even think about mounting speakers on your wall. Hover stands place your speakers in the perfect position for an ideal home theater experience. Whether it be sports, movies or video games... having all sound effects seem like they are flying over your head is awesome. With these stands, you feel closer to the action than you ever imagined. ADVICE: USE 1 PAIR FOR YOUR FRONTS WITH THE STRAIGHT PILLAR. USE A SECOND PAIR FOR YOUR REAR SPEAKERS USING THE ANGLED PILLAR

Great adjust ability. Comes with both types extension poles. Straight and slightly arched over you.Option of carpet spikes or rubber feet depending on floor surface. My speakers met the 10lb rating but had to modify the mount. Built for smaller satellite speakers , and I was using small bookshelf. It still worked out OK.

These stands are superlative. They are heavy (this is a good thing), well-built, and relatively easy to assemble. Upon first opening the box, you see easy-to-follow instructions, and all of the parts are sorted and labled in individual compartments in a long strip of bags. No more sifting through a bag of fifty different parts and comparing bits to the pictures to find the right one. Instead, each little compartment is labled with something like: "8 - Rubber Base Pads (E)". The instructions tell you when to use each part. The stand also comes with a fairly large selection of different mounting options, so don't be worried if you have many parts left over when you are done. One thing you must keep in mind with these stands is that if you have small children or rambunctions pets around, they are not too difficult to tip over, because the base is fairly small. It would not take too much of a jolt to tumble these things over, especially if you have the speaker mounted fairly high and/or the speaker is heavy. The finish is put on well and fairly attractive (black cast iron.) Of course, taste is subjective, but I think they look better than most other stands out there, and they should wear well, since they do not have a glossy finish prone to scratches. All in all, while these stands are not cheap, they are fairly good.

the general opinion is that "speaker stands are speaker stands, what else is there to say" NOT ANY MORE! explosions, airplanes, gun shots, etc all sound like they are flying directly over your head. after hooking up these stands using the angled pillar, i caught myself looking up at them four times during the first movie i watched. these stands make the home theater experience more realistic than ever before, not to mention the cheap price. THEY ARE AN ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE IF YOU ALSO USE YOUR HOME THEATER FOR VIDEO GAMES!!!!! the straight pillars included are best if using them for your front speakers, but the angled pillars maximize your rear surround speakers in amazing fashion. its may seem odd to speak so glowingly of speaker stands, but they will put the ideal finishing touch on your home theater!!

These stands assemble very easily, and come with many plates to hold different types of speakers. Supper heavy, and will hold up to 10lb. speakers. I am getting two more today for my front speakers. They had different backing brackets, and didn't think they would work, but tried them when I got home and no problem. I wish the finish was a smooth black, but these won't show scratches, if they will even scratch. The finish is like the old speaker stands I used when I was in a rock band many years ago. I would highly recommend these stands. To bad they couldn't have made the screws and nuts black. All in all, GREAT STANDS!

These stands are absolutely terrific. They were easy to assemble and offers different mount options for different speakers. The only difficulty I had was running the speaker wire since i was using 14 AWG. It was a little tough getting it through the upper tube since it's a little more narrow. Other than that, these stands are great!

Good looking if you like flat black, which I do. Steel tube for the stand with a steel plate to park the speaker on. Nice heavy cast iron base. No plastic junk here. A bit fiddly for one person to put together, but I had all four of them together (I bought two sets) and the speakers mounted in about an hour. Comes with an angled and straight tube for the top, and a fair selection of mounting options. Carpet spikes in addition to rubber feet for the bottom are nice.

I bought my first pair and had to come back for the second pair. They are very easy to assemble and are very functional and can be used with many speakers. Small notch at bottom isnt very functional. however, that was not enough to stop me from buying them.
