Scansonic Speaker Stands

Scansonic speaker stands are designed for Scansonic M10 and MB1 speakers. They provide a dedicated place for these speakers in the listening room and make it easier to create a balanced, symmetrical stereo setup.

Purpose and selection

These stands are intended for two specific Scansonic speaker models. They are therefore relevant to M10 or MB1 owners who want to place their speakers on purpose-designed stands rather than on furniture or another available surface.

A speaker stand is a mechanical accessory. It does not affect the choice of amplifier or audio source, and it does not determine whether the other components in the system are electrically compatible. Electrical compatibility depends on the speakers themselves and the equipment connected to them.

Speaker positioning

Place the stands on a level, solid surface. Begin by positioning the left and right speakers at equal distances from your usual listening position. This provides a clear and consistent starting point for further adjustments.

When refining the setup, move both speakers by the same amount and adjust their angles equally. Making symmetrical changes helps you hear more clearly how distance and toe-in affect the stereo image, rather than introducing an unintended difference between the two channels.

Avoid placing one speaker very close to a wall while leaving the other much farther away. Different surroundings on each side can affect channel balance and alter the perceived amount of bass. A reasonably symmetrical arrangement makes it easier to achieve a coherent presentation.

Installation in an audio system

The stands have no audio connections, so they do not carry or process the audio signal. Connect each speaker directly to the amplifier or the appropriate component in your audio system, following the instructions for the speakers and connected equipment.

Before deciding on the final position, sit in the place where you normally listen. Check that both speakers face the listening area at the same angle and that neither speaker is blocked by furniture or other large objects. Keeping the path from each speaker similarly clear can help maintain an even presentation.

Choose the final position by listening to a recording you know well. Pay attention to whether vocals appear clearly in the centre, whether the left and right channels sound balanced, and whether the overall soundstage feels continuous. If an adjustment is needed, change both sides in equal steps and listen again.

FAQ

What should I check before buying these stands?

Before purchasing, confirm that the stands are suitable for your specific version of the Scansonic M10 or MB1. Compatibility is stated in the store information but has not been independently verified, so it is worth checking the exact speaker version before ordering.

Do the stands require a separate audio connection?

No. The audio signal is sent directly to the speakers. The stands are used only to establish and maintain the speakers’ position in the listening space.

How should I begin positioning the speakers?

Start by placing both speakers at equal distances from the listening position. Then adjust the angle of each speaker by the same amount and compare the result from your normal seat.

Are mounting components included?

No reliable information is provided about any mounting components included with the stands. The package contents should therefore be confirmed before purchase.

Where is the best place to position the stands?

Choose a level, solid surface and aim for a symmetrical position within the room. Make sure the speakers are not obstructed by furniture or other large objects.
