If you have a very limited set up area these stands will be just right. With the base plates just over 45cm wide you'll fit in to the smallest of spaces. The additional base weight (included) is essential, without this I would not use these stand for speakers. The additional weight sits in the bottom of the stand using a very simple but effective lock-in method. As usual with all Gravity products, these stands are great quality and extremely well made. One word of warning, you need to be cautious if you are working close to the "audience". With a speaker on top these stands are stable but can be easily knocked over (it's happened to me!). That said, used wisely these stands give you another option for your set up. They could also be used for lighting with a Top Cap or suitable T-Bar without any issues. Great quality and 5 stars from me, I would have rated at 4 stars due to the "topple" risk, but that's not a product issue - you just need to be sensible about where you use it.
