Gator Frameworks GFW-SPK-SM50 Studio Monitor Stands (pair)

The Gator GFW-SPK-SM50 is a pair of wide-base floor monitor stands, adjustable from 35-53 inches, rated to 100 lb each and topped with a rubberized plate, a solid beginner-tier choice. They're meant to get studio monitors off the desk and decoupled at listening height. Skip them for desktop near-field placement, since these are full-height floor stands.
