2 Rockville DJ PA Tripod Speaker Stands Hydraulic Air Powered Auto Lift RVSS4A

Love it ! Very heavy duty, fast shipping!

I got tired of hefting my K12.2 speakers onto "normal" speaker stands, so I got these as a replacement. They work great -- the speakers are a good match for the tension of the stands so with just a little pressure I can lift the speakers.I like that it has fixed locking points (like a standard speaker stand with its pin holes) so when raising/lowering I can push the button to disengage the lock, then it will slide up/down and will lock into the next hole on its own.A few things to consider (not deal-breakers for me):1. When collapsed they are larger (length and diameter) and heavier than my previous stands, so they don't fit in my old stand bag or in the stand "pocket" on the side of my speaker bags.2. For my speakers, the stand has to be extended one notch to put the speaker on completely (and take it off). For storing I have tried leaving them extended one notch (which makes them even longer and harder to put in a bag). Now, after taking the speaker off the stand, I just push hard to collapse it completely.

I bought these speaker stands as a replacement for a pair of "On-Stage" stands I bought from Amazon a week prior. The On-Stage stands were severely under-built and were basically a Wal-Mart quality, disposable speaker stand. After returning the On-Stage stands, I ordered these Rockville stands because they seemed like a great deal for a stand with so many features. Also, they didn't have the same clunky tethered locking pins that most other brands do. Shipment was slow, but that was expected because of the extreme weather out East. The stands arrived and I was blown away! First, the stands are built EXCEPTIONALLY well. They are steel in the tripod section, as well as the collar, which REALLY makes these stands sturdy. No slippage, no bending or wobbling, no worrying if someone's crazy dance moves sends them crashing into your stand. The only plastic pieces I could find were the two tightening knobs, and the pole grommet(which looks and feels like a high-density injection-molded polymer, rather than cheap thin plastic), and the pole grommet is surrounded by a heavy-metal clamp. The lifting pole is made from heavy-gauge cast aluminum, and has a gas-assist for raising and lowering your speakers. THIS SYSTEM ROCKS!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pin-lock system. Rather than having your pin on a tether and needing to "thread the needle" every time, this stand has what basically amounts to a pin-lock toggle. You pull the pin, the stand pole rises without any effort. You let go of the pin, and it automatically springs back and locks into the next available hole. Killer system! I plopped my JBL EON 515XT, which weighs a sparse 33 lbs, on top of this stand, pulled the pin, and the speaker shot straight up into the air with NO effort on my part! No lifting, no straining while trying to put the pin through the hole. Just put the speaker on, pull the pin, let go of the pin. That's it! This will save precious minutes when setting up for a gig, and tearing down after. Can't say enough good things about these stands. Build quality is top-notch, so far the lift-assist system is flawless, and I anticipate them lasting a long time with such high-grade materials. Over all an INCREDIBLE VALUE! Gonna buy another set as backups. GREAT JOB ROCKVILLE!

A+ Best Buy Ever

The stands arrived on time. Solid build; all metal, as described. However, in one of the stands, the first time I tried to "lift" the pole by pressing hand clutch, it would not budge. I had to use a pair of pliers to press it and then the pole did not rise on its own as expected. I had to spray WD-40 to loosen it up. The other one worked as expected. Maybe the other is defective. Should I return it?

This is a horrible product for pros! I use JBL SRX815p which are 62LB speakers less than half the advertised 154LB and this stand doesn’t even attempt to lift them. I tried to help the stand but it was like I was lifting the speaker myself. No point of getting these stands, they are useless.

I use a couple of 15 in JBL speakers. About 62 lb each. Put them on the stands push the button and up they go. Fantastic stands. Highly recommend!

This product has good sizeand strength. Easy to use. Easy to set up. My speakers are 45 pounds. And there is no problem with the hydraulic lifting or lowering it. Love it.
