Digital camera reviews of Atlantic Satellite 77305018 2 Speaker Stands (Black)
Digital camera Review: A Fantastic Buy
Summary: 5 Stars
These stands are well worth the money spent. I bought two pair for my surround sound system and could't be happier. Assembly is a snap and only took about 5 minutes per stand and they look great. The heft of these stands assures great stability even on plush carpeting. I'm glad I didn't buy the more expensive stands.Digital camera Review: A Great Deal in Speaker Stands
Summary: 5 Stars
These stands are a remarkable value for the price. All the other stands I've looked at were very much over-priced. The setup easily, have sturdy, heavy bases and effectively hid your wiring. I had no problems attaching my speakers with the supplied hardware. Buy them if you need stands. I bought two sets, one for front left and right, and one for rear left and right. A good deal.Digital camera Review: A bang for the buck
Summary: 5 Stars
These stands are cheap but sturdy. I have the 7.1 channel require 2 pairs of stands for the satellite speakers. At beginning I bought only a pair because I was worrying about the quality. I received the 1st pair and after assembled, my worry were gone and I placed order for the 2nd pair right away. The only comment is the bracket frame at back is too short that there is no way for me to mount the speaker with screw. I finally use the sticky tape come with it to hold the speakers.Digital camera Review: A fantastic deal. Attractive, functional and sturdy
Summary: 5 Stars
What a great price! I bought these for my Orb Audio speakers and they look and work great.
They come with a small square platform on the top. My Orbs come with their own small table-top stand. So, I just drilled four holes in the the platform and the Orb stand and bolted them together with small bolts. I didn't want to use adhesive because I wanted something much more secure. And it was worth the effort.
The floor stands are very sturdy, and they look nice, too.
I was careful not to over-tighten the height adjustments after reading about a couple bad experiences in other reviews. I encountered no problems at all.
I would highly recommend these stands even at double the price.
Digital camera Review: A few flaws, but for the price, probably worth it.
Summary: 3 Stars
Pros:
SUPER LOW PRICE
Heavy-duty base and poles
Cons:
Poor workmanship (threading at base)
Cheap details (low quality plastic parts)
Comments:
I got my stands today (4 total) and was a bit disappointed with the quality of construction (not to mention Amazon's poor attempt to properly pack them). The base was constructed of very heavy painted cast iron with felt pads on the feet. The poles also seem very heavy duty, but the plastic adjustment collars are of cheaper quality and don't seem to be attached very well. My biggest complaint though is with the threading on the poles and the stands. The threads don't fit tightly and are too fine for the material used. On one of the bases, the threading is completely missing halfway down on one side (it's just flat painted metal.) WARNING: It is extremely easy to mis-thread or over tighten these stands, so be careful or you'll be grabbing for the JB-Weld. Even when they are threaded properly, there is a lot of play, which at the speaker mount area equates to a couple inches of back and fourth movement. I'm going to attempt to return them to Atlantic for warranty issues, hoping that they were just a bad batch. We'll see what happens. For the price though, they are still a good buy if you don't mind the possibility of having to permanently attach the base to the poles.
