Desktop Speaker Stands

Desktop speaker stands, like other speaker stands, are built to elevate your speakers to ear level and decouple them from acoustically unforgiving surfaces. As the name suggests, desktop speaker stands (also known as tabletop speaker stands or monitor stands) can be used to raise speakers off desks and worktops.

Desktop speaker stands, like other speaker stands, are built to elevate your speakers to ear level and decouple them from acoustically unforgiving surfaces. As the name suggests, desktop speaker stands (also known as tabletop speaker stands or monitor stands) can be used to raise speakers off desks and worktops.

They are small and often sold in pairs for use with a stereo system.

The range of desktop speaker stands at AV.com includes universal fits from brands like Vogel, SubZero, and Fisual, as well as custom stands for popular desktop speakers. You’ll find sturdy steel stands, adjustable stands, and stands with isolation pads included for even greater vibration reduction.

About Desktop Speaker Stands

Desktop speaker stands are a great solution to decouple speakers from a desk. Not everyone has the space or ideal room shape for floor stands, but with desktop speaker stands, you can still elevate and isolate to save your sound.

While placing speakers on a desk may be cheap and easy, you won't hear them at their full potential. Against a desk, certain frequencies are amplified, meaning speaker tone is distorted and performance is not as intended. The desk will resonate and vibrate with the sound it absorbs, resulting in buzzing noises which distract from the audio-visual experience. Aren't you curious to hear how good your speaker investments really are?

Desk speaker stands come in various forms, but the most common is a base plate with a smaller top plate atop a central post. Variations on this common formula include height adjustable posts and angled top plates. With angled top plates the incline is typically around 10-15 degrees and is intended to direct sound upwards towards your ears. Whether you need desktop speaker stands with such an incline will depend on the height of your desk, chair, and speakers. Your objective should be to keep your speakers at ear-level.

At AV.com, you'll find a mix of universally supportive and custom-designed desk speaker stands. You'll also find a mix of materials, ranging from steel (for greater durability) to rubber (for greater isolation). This wide range will allow you to choose a stand that meets their audio needs and aesthetic preferences.

FAQs

Why shouldn't you place your speakers directly on a desk?

Placing speakers directly on a desk is not advisable due to potential sound quality degradation. The vibration from the speakers can resonate with the desk surface, leading to distortion of sound and potential damage to the speaker. It's best to mitigate these issues by using solutions such as speaker stands or isolation pads.

Do monitor stands fit all monitors?

The compatibility of a monitor stand with a monitor is dependent on the size, weight, and specifications of both the monitor and the stand. Standards such as VESA are adhered to by most modern monitors, facilitating their mounting on walls or desk speaker stands. However, it is not a guarantee that all monitor stands are interchangeable. Check the specifications of products before purchasing.

Do desktop speaker stands make a difference?

Desktop speaker stands make a significant difference in sound quality. They elevate and isolate speakers, preventing desk-bound vibrations and ensuring that sound is directed towards ear level. This results in a cleaner, clearer, and more-focused sound, maximising your speaker's potential.
