For whatever reason monitor stands are fairly expensive (given the material costs) it seems. So while these aren't perfect, they are still the best bang for your buck (other than DIY).
PROS:
The stand is very sturdy, and once you've screwed everything in, absolutely nothing rattles, has give, flexes, etc.
The rubber feet have good non-slip feel to them. No worry about the stand or the speaker slipping.
Personally, I think they look much better and feel much more sturdy than IsoAcoustics. I know IsoAcoustics are popular, but I never really understood why as they don't really look that great, and seem pretty cheaply made and cost almost 3x as much as these.
For maybe what? $15 bucks more than the "foam" speaker stands?....these are an absolute no-brainer for anyone looking for a sturdy, adjustable speaker stand at a reasonable price.
Seem like they'd be easy to "upgrade" with sorbothane pads in the future if you wanted some extra vibration reduction. Personally the default feet are fine for me, but just throwing out the possibility for some people who might have challenging environments.
Also, considering that sorbothane combo would still come in under half-price of the IsoAcoustics and would certainly lead to better dampening, again, I just don't understand why people buy IsoAcoustics stands. /Shrug.
CONS:
As some other reviews mentioned, the paint/MDF can chip if you force the "clips" on too hard, so just be mindful. Being aware of that before hand helped immensely, and the one "chip" I had isn't visible when the clip was pushed in.
TIPS:
Follow the instructions. Most notably, pay attention to the the direction of the "flat/squared off" notches. Make sure they face the logo.
The pre-drilled screw holes are very tight so you may need to go ahead and screw your screws in before assembly (and screw them back out) to "widen" the holes a little.
Also, I'd test all the different angles and height pads before removing the adhesive sticker so you can get the proper height, angle alignment.
