Abstract
A speaker stand has a base, an upright, and one or more quick release speaker couplers. The base has a plurality of arms, anchors, and optional removable stability plates. The upright has a lower vertical riser defining a first vertical riser longitudinal axis, an upper vertical riser parallel with and axially offset from the first vertical riser longitudinal axis, and an angled intermediate riser connecting the lower and upper vertical risers together. The quick release speaker coupler suspends a loudspeaker enclosure bracket to the upper vertical riser even when not clamped thereto, while providing three displaced axes of rotation for the loudspeaker enclosure, two that are parallel to the lower vertical riser longitudinal axis and one angularly offset thereto, and at least one axis of reciprocation. The radial offset of the loudspeaker from the upper vertical riser centers the mass of the loudspeaker enclosure with the base.
