The Gator Framework equivalents mentioned have a bottom plate of 10"x10". This one claims to be a 10x4. The photos also seem to show that it may be similarly as narrow. I have another brand that I bought that has a 10x10 top and bottom plate so it's a bit too wide for my JBL305's. I am hoping this one is more narrow. Can anyone confirm what the dimensions (top and bottom plate) are?

cheese528The listing is wrong, there will be an adjustment soon! The actual base dimensions are about 12 x 9

PushFaderCashCheckThanks for the info. Do you know if the top plate is also 12x9 or something else?

I have a set of these, along with the clamping and tall ones. They are very commercial. They work but are not super stable. I think they do the job but are also HUGE for a normal desk or pair of speakers. Pay attention to the dimensions.

These appear to be better quality, I am buying the clamp-on Gator version.

Wondering if I can use these to lift up the front end of my 1947 Ferrari 125 S, while I change the oil?

RayFRay, every time I read one of your strange pseudo-solliloquies I find myself repeating the same sentiments in my own life. You have succeeded in your parasitic invasion of my mind fuzz.

Purchased similar looking floor stands for my JBL monitors—no particular improvements to sound quality, but they sure did ugly-up the place. I’d expect similar performance from these.

These look similar to the “Gator Frameworks Desktop Studio Monitor and Speaker Stand” found on other sites. Are they the same thing under a different brand?

I built a long monitor riser to raise the speakers up and declutter. They were at chest level before but now they are right around chin level and I noticed it was there was more clarity. I was hoping that raising it up just a little bit more would help make it even more clear but now you have me second guessing. lol

Make sure your desk or table, especially those A/C powered can support another 100 pounds of speakers in addition to the weight of these stands. My IKEA powered desk had trouble with too much weight.

What is the size of the upper plate, how are you suppose to know what sizes this can fit?

What do you think about floor mount stand vs clamp mounting? I feel that clamping to a desk alone is not good for isolation, putting flat based on a desk is is better, mounting on full stand off the desk is best...Looking at the Gator brand, some models are sold out.

I think if there is a benefit to be had from isolation, the maximum benefit would probably come from floor standing units. However, there are a lot of contingencies involved.
I wrote about my experiences with floor standing units here:
https://drop.com/buy/sonic-fiber-sf-smfs-studio-monitor-floor-stands/talk/2766342?utm_source=linkshare&referer=B2BDHC
But to answer you question, I'm guessing the desk stands in this drop are reasonably well built and do what they claim. The question I would ask is do you really need them? Depends on your speakers and your desk and maybe to music you listen to. Regardless of the method (clamped to your desk, or free standing on your desk), the weak link is the platform (you desk in this case) the speakers are resting on. I have a heavy desk and my speakers are mounted on the OEM rubber feet they came with. I don't have isolation problems with that set up.
If you chose the clamp on stands, the surface area you clamp to becomes the issue--the thinner and lighter the surface (the desk) the less efficient the set up becomes. Generally, you can't beat the floor for the best stability, but I'll admit, not all floors are created equal! In a studio environment, none of that stuff is an issue--the tables, racks and platforms are all heavy-duty, and purpose-built. That's not always the case in your room or study.
In the end, I decided speaker stands didn't offer any real benefit to me (no improvement to sound quality, no improvement to convenience (the desk space I saved was marginal), and aesthetically , they were no help at all (they're clunky, easy to trip over and a pain to vacuum or sweep around).
Still, if I were you, and was sure I needed stands, I'd opt for the Desktop versions over the Clamp-on models--I think as your environment changes/evolves, you'll find the Desktop stands to be the most versatile/flexible units.
But remember, I telling you all this as the guy with a nice pair of floor stands collecting dust in the garage ;- )
