K&M 26735 Speaker Stand

I'm using these for my Neumann KH310 (together with mounting bracket LH25 + LH28) in my composition / production studio.

Small footprint, clean look.
Love the screw and safety.

There are a couple of pads around the base, so it's not going to scratch any floors and also doesn't need to stand on a super flat surface. They're made from some sort of felt if I remember correctly.

The stands seem very stable, though they are oscillating slightly when touched/moved/etc. I believe it's just slightly more than with traditional stands (fully retracted), so not a big deal at all, and I did expected this, given that they stand rather tall with no support structure other than the base.
(this is with the stands fully retracted and sort of near max capacity - the oscillations would probably increase when extended. Not much more than with traditional stands).

Not really something to worry about, but should probably be kept in mind when there is going to be a lot of movement around the speakers.

I wanted to use these speaker stands in an audio art installation where the visual look is also important. The stand with the round base definitly looks nice, and it is fairly stable. However, compared to it's tripod brother the stands is quite a bit less stable than that one. I also believe the weight in the description is not the weight of the base alone, but of the whole speaker. It starts to wobble a lot faster than its tripod brother, especially if you are using non center loaded speakers. The round base also makes it much more difficult to use the stand in places where the floors aren't perfectly flat.

For light center loaded speakers you want to put on a visually pleasing stand, this stand is ideal. But for not center loaded, or slightly heavier speakers, look towards the tripod brother or get a stand with a heavier base.

The main reason I got these stands is because they look great. I have a set of mini-line array column speakers and they suit these perfectly. Stage footprint is much lower than regular tripod designs and they are very stable (my speakers are 8Kg each with 8x3.5" speakers arranged vertically). I can also place the speakers behind my band in certain venues where high volume is not required. So for my speakers these are an ideal match. I can't say whether they would suit heavier 12" or 15" designs.
The only drawback is that they are very heavy to transport. I use a cymbal bag to transport the bases and this helps a little. The distance pole screws into the base so these can be transported separately.
Overall, I am very pleased and since I bought them my tripod stands have been left gathering dust at home.
