Product Information
Full details
The Kanto SP9 Desktop Speaker Stands are an essential upgrade for audiophiles and desktop users who own YU2, YU4, or similar small-format bookshelf speakers. By elevating your speakers to ear level and isolating them from your desk surface, these stands significantly improve audio clarity and frequency response. While the heavy-duty steel construction provides excellent stability for speakers weighing up to 13.6 kg, users should ensure their specific desk space can accommodate the 9-inch height before purchase.

FAQs
Can I use these with speakers other than Kanto?
Yes, as long as your speakers weigh under 13.6 kg and feature a 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole on the bottom.
Do these stands come in different heights?
The SP9 model is specifically designed at a 9-inch height. Other Kanto models may offer different heights.
Are the stands sold in pairs?
Yes, the SP9 stands are provided as a set of two.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The stands are engineered to support a total weight of 13.6 kg.
Does the foam padding wear out?
The closed-cell foam is designed for long-term use and provides consistent vibration dampening throughout the life of the product.
Troubleshooting
Speaker wobbles on the stand
Ensure the speaker is properly centered on the top plate and verify that the 1/4"-20 mounting screw is tightened firmly.
Cables are too thick to pass through the column
The hollow column is designed for standard speaker and power cabling. If using thick aftermarket shielded cables, try threading them through separately rather than together.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your SP9 stands, first determine which of the two included top-plate sizes fits your specific speaker model. Align your speaker with the mounting hole and use the provided 1/4"-20 screw to secure the speaker to the plate. Once mounted, route your speaker wires down through the hollow support column to keep your desktop area clutter-free.
Compatibility:
- Designed specifically for Kanto YU2 and YU4 speakers.
- Suitable for other bookshelf speakers up to 13.6 kg that feature a bottom mounting hole.
Care Instructions:
- Regularly wipe the steel surfaces with a dry, lint-free cloth to keep them free of dust.
- Periodically check the 1/4"-20 screw connection to ensure the speakers remain securely fastened.
- Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the foam padding, as these can degrade the material over time.
