I’m a professional DJ. I ordered these to replace some worn out, older stands I had. First off, they don’t collapse as short as other stands which makes transport more difficult. Second and more importantly, they are garbage! The rubber ring that allows the tightening knobs to work (why they use this system, I don’t know) broke and fell out the first time I tried to use these. The price is enticing, but don’t waste your money!

These are appealing because they are cheap, but they are really, really poorly built. There is a piece of plastic in the top of the stand (the part that is pushed against the stand to keep it elevated). They have all popped out, and can be easily put back in, but easily lost, rendering the stand basically worthless. Also there is a plastic sleeve in the base of the stand that always pops out, leading to an unbearable rattling stand.

We are a multiple system DJ company, and wanted a cheap speaker stand, but these are terrible. Spend ten dollars or and get Ultimate Support or something of at least decent quality.

I ordered these stands hoping that they would be better than the price indicated. However, the bag was ripped in 3 places. The stands were both scratched badly with lots of paint missing. The most annoying thing was that they did not match each other. The locking mechanism was different on each stand and they were different heights. The holes in the inner poles were drilled in different places so in order to use the support pins and have the speakers at the same height, you had to adjust the legs to accommodate the difference in height. They looked like they might be relatively solid but I returned them anyway…bit disappointing.
