Sanus NF36 Speaker Stands

Same as August, 16, 2019 review for NF24 Speaker Stands with one exception..the Cable Covers recieved were intended to be used on the shorter Stands and not the NF36. Sanus seems to have a Quality Control issue.

Perfect for what I needed. My Vanatoo Transparent One powered speakers fit perfectly. A little hard to level on a wood floor. It would be nice if it came with some rubber tips so you could use the leveling carpet spikes on a week floor.

Worth the money and does the job.

Sanus makes very good quality speaker stands and the NF36 is no exception. It's well constructed, easy to put together, and very attractive. There are only a few things I'd change. I'd like a larger base for more stability. I had to place one stand next to a high traffic area. And I've brushed it with my long arms in passing on more than one occasion. Fortunately, the rocking was gentle enough not to topple the speaker. But it did give me a panic. The other change I'd like to see is some way of attaching the speaker to the stand. As it is, it must rest on little, sound isolating spikes that come with the stand. One can always use something like Quake Hold to add some peace of mind. That said, as long as your stand is away from anyplace it might be bumped, you should have no worries about speaker safety. Of course, all bets are off in the event of an earthquake.

Sanus NF36 Speaker Stands

It was more difficult finding a good pair of speaker stands than I thought it would be. Then I remembered Crutchfield. It had been some time since I had done business w/them; but I visited their website & found all kinds of speaker stands. After speaking w/a rep & telling him what my needs were, I settled on these Sanus stands. I was also able to get them at a holiday sales price. Shipping time was swift, the quality of the product was first-rate; & I will likely have these for years (my previous stands did the job for twenty years). The folks at Crutchfield are top-notch, friendly, & knowledgeable. Thanks for a pleasant shopping experince.

Good stands

Stands are great. Using them for surrounds. I run 14 gauge wire and it's concealed very nicely by the plastic wire covers. Takes a minute to get the wire covers on -- you have to bend a flat plastic slat and finesse it into place -- but once you figure it out it's a piece of cake. Everything else about assembly is super easy. At the price point per set, the price is probably too high for the materials that these are made of, but they look nice and they work and there aren't many other options out there for 36" stands.

Fantastic stands

I can't say enough about these stands. The quality exceeded my expectation and I love the height. I would give 4.5 or 5.0 except for one issue that impacts my use but may not impact yours. I use powered monitors with a synth and the monitors have a power cord that will not fit through the hole in the base. As a result, the speaker wire is completely hidden and comes out under the base, but the powered cable comes out of the wire trap and sits on top of the base. Not a big deal, but a slight disappointment. Putting that one issue aside, I highly recommend these stands.

I Purchased these to use with a front wide speaker set up. I'd purchased the 18" stands in the same finish to use for back speakers A while ago & found that those stands performed well. I see no reason why these won't do the same.

Good height, unobtrusive, some design flaws

Medium quality, unobtrusive look. The wire hide is nice, but like others said, it can damage the veneer during install. I wonder if it will crack in a few years because it is heavily bent when installed. Disappointingly, the wire hide also comes as two pieces of plastic - probably due to supply chain - so there is a seam between them. Barely noticeable but ruins the effect (might otherwise look like metal or even glass).

Overall great product

These stands look great and are a quality product. I like the cherry wood color. Assembly was quick and easy and are a prefect fit for my Klipsch R-15PM speakers. 36" height was ideal. My only complaint was on the plastic wire covers for the backside of the stand, they were a little difficult to install and chipped some of the veneer off. I am very happy overall with my purchase.

Sanus NF36 Speaker Stands

The finish is nice, however the base isn't really heavy enough to prevent the stand from falling over if it gets bumped. Carpet spikes and rubber feet are included, and either will be required (good design). The stands are either veneer or painted. The upper pedestal is only 6"x6". I had to swap it out with a custom made one to make my slightly larger (M&K 125) speaker work correctly. I did have an issue with the finish not matching the NF30's I bought previously, but Sanus customer support was excellent and sent me replacement columns. Overall, I'm happy with the quality of the product, but I do wish the column or "foot" had a way to add weight (sand, metal...etc).

Don't waste your money!

Very poorly designed and manufactured. No quality control whatsoever. The pre-drilled holes were not properly drilled through, nor were they drilled straight! The only reason, and I mean THE ONLY REASON, I'm keeping these, is because I've had a lot of design issues with speaker stands from Bose over the last few weeks and I simply don't want to deal with it anymore.

Overall good quality construction and packaging. I like the options of assembly. My elac b5 fit nicely on them.

Sanus NF36 Stands

This is a nice speaker stand. It looks good and cleans up the look of the entire setup in my opinion. As for the complaints for the lack of screws holding the stands together, some commented that only 4 screws per stand implying more would be better, more screws would do nothing to improve the design or it's stability. The top plate is centered on the column the column is centered on the base plate and the whole thing is leveled. There is no reason that more screws would improve anything. My speakers weigh 17 pounds each and they seem to be fine and stable on them.

Solid, classy and functional speaker stands

Very attractive and functional stands. They hold my Klipsch R 14's really well. They are positioned in the rear of my living room. Takes a little time to get them flush / balanced to the floor when using the rubber feet (as opposed to the spikes). My apartment has wooden floors and it is an old building, and the floor is not perfectly level. But after a few adjustments, they are standing very firm. You need to keep in mind not to have high back chairs in the area that you place them with your speakers. In my case, 38-40 inches tall would have been perfect for even high back chairs. They take up very little room, but add a nice touch. They have a very simple and clean classy lines. They were easy to put together and the tubing that hides the speaker wires were not that challenging. The hole through the plate is a little narrow for some speaker wires to come through, so I went around the plate which reveals minimal wire exposure - no big deal. All in all I am quite happy with them. They are nice and tall, help project the sound well and, as mentioned, they look very nice in the room.

Nice and tall!

These are some of the only tall stands we could find for smaller speakers. The top plate isn't as wide as we need it for our speakers (3" x 11.5"), so we are going to buy glass to put between the plate and the speakers. This, of course, almost doubles the price. There just aren't many options available for the bookcase style wireless speakers. We want to use these for rear surround speakers, and they don't fit those well; but they are tall enough. We have Sony speakers and the holes don't align with the mounting plate.

It's ok

These were this price when I bought them so I don't want to be too harsh. They hold my speakers and were fairly easy to level but they are really cheaply constructed. 4 wood screws are the only thing that olds these stands together and both of the support posts have a slight bend to them. I have a 15 pound bookshelf speaker on each and they seem acceptably sturdy (no kids around) but I wouldn't recommend locating these in a high traffic area.

Sanus Speaker Stand N36

Nice stand overall. Bookshelf speakers rest securely on top even though they are not mechanically mounted. The N36 lifts the rear speakers to ear height while sitting on the couch. Sounds great. The plastic pieces that cover the speaker wire need to be flexed several times before installing. This relaxes the plastic and makes it easy to install.

Quality at Good Price

Sturdy, well built, and easy to assemble stands that also look great. It took approximately 15 minutes to assemble a pair of these and another 5 minutes to adjust the bottom spikes so the stands were level. Others have reviewed that the cable "track" was difficult to insert, but I found that if you place the plastic cover entirely in one side of the upright track, then moving from top to bottom, snap the other side into the opposite track, assembly was easy. Have bought 3 pairs of these with all being packaged and shipped well......not one damaged stand. I use them to hold my Definitive Technologies Monitor 1000's. These are approximately 8-9 lbs each and these stands are capable of holding much more than that. Good buy and am very happy with my purchase.

Pretty Cool!

By looking at these on the web, I was skeptical. Even after reading the great reviews, I was still skeptical. The head is so small, my speakers are quite a bit bigger, would they stay up? Would they balance? Will they fall over? I must echo the other 5 star reviews here. There are no problems with these stands. My old Alesis studio Monitors are 9x11X18. Yet the plate on the head of the stand is only 6x6. Doesn't matter one bit. They are surprisingly sturdy and show no intention of falling over, tipping or losing balance in any way. I keep them out of the way, up against he wall, I have 2 cats that practically eat under one every day. No issues. Good job on this product Crutchfield. I get sick of buying cheap crap from other online retailers and leaving poor reviews. How about someone research the products they sell to confirm they work as expected before selling them to everyone? Congrats Crutchfield, I somehow doubt you tested this product as such but whatever you did, you did it right. Anyone who buys this is going to be very pleased.

Classy and Solid

I always look for cheap stands, this time I wanted to try something with a more sturdy construction as I had some very large and heavy dipole surround speakers that I now had to mount on stands (instead the wall) since we changed up our seating. The finish on these are very classy, they fit right in with all my other home theater equipment as well as the speakers they hold. The speakers themselves are right up to the weight limit of these stands and also hang over the top and back of the stands by about 3" on all sides. I used some double sided velcro tape that I picked up at a local hardware store for like 2 bucks, cleaned the bottom of the speaker and the top of the stand with some alcohol, applied tape and put the speaker on there. They hold them up perfectly, there is no wobble in these stands and the fact that you can hide the wires inside the stand is def a pro. I have a 3 year old that is very active and a 70lb curious puppy, these have been bumped into by a door, kid and dog and have yet to fall down. It was hit in the worst possible top heavy position and didn't fall down. Definitely work it. Might pick up another pair for some wide position in an Audyssey dsx setup to save some room instead of another pair of floorstanding.

Nice stand

This product was easy to put together and took no time at all. The size of the base plate you put your speakers on looks a little small. But i was amazed that it holds my polkaudio monitor 45b bookshelf and klipsch icon series ws-24 surround sound speakers with no problem. They stand right at ear level for me. I feel the rubber fight for the base and the rubber tabs for the speaker base are a great option. Not much a fan of the carpet spikes and the spike ends that hold the speaker in place. Glad that those peices are options. The black lacquer that they use matches my ash and espresso speakers well enough. If you are looking for a option besides drilling holes in your walls this is not a bad idea.

Nice looking ,match very well with my def tech 8040 surrounds, not a perfect fit, but i was able to secure them with some velcrow tape on top of stand plate and bottom of speaker.This set of stands are the perfect height for HT set up,for most people,right at ear level when sitting.They also are built well,and stand firm as long as you use the right feet for your floor,that does not mean they can not tip over if bumped by your child or pet. Makes nice improvement in over all sound,when speakers are at right height,which these stands will do for most people.

Meant to be together

Before I purchased these speaker stands, I read all of the reviews available. I was concerned about the number of people who had difficulty with the speaker wire covers...but the stands looked so awesome that I had to take a chance and buy them. From the moment I opened the box I knew that I had made the right decision! The cherry finish matched the finish of my new Polk Audio RTi A3s, my new RTi A9s and my new CSi A6 (too bad the DSW PRO 660W sub is available only in black finish.) Having been forewarned about the trouble people had with the black plastic wire covers, I put mine out in the sun for about 15 minutes while I assembled the stands. It took me about 15 minutes to assemble both stands, no difficulty there! When I had to stands assembled, I went out and got the wire covers from the lawn. Although it was only 64 degrees outside, the covers were more flexible than before. I fed the speaker wires up through the bottom of the wire covers, placed them where I wanted them and hooked up the speaker, making certain that there would be no stress on the top or bottom of the speaker wire covers. I could not have asked for a better match for my Polks! The quality is very good and the finish is perfect. Buy these speaker stands if you have Polk cherry-finished speakers! Oh, it took me longer to write this review than it took me to assemble the Sanus NF36 Speaker Stands.

Don't Buy These Stands!

Don't buy these stands! They are NOT well made. First, they are wood and light weight, which is not ideal for stands, though for the price, I guess that can be forgiven. They are also a bit wobbly, though at 36" maybe that can be forgiven as well. What cannot be forgiven are the speaker wire covers. They are frustrating at best. They are plastic and VERY hard to get into the grooves proved. They require a lot of work and create a lot tension. The grooves in which they are supposed to sit are made by glueing on cheap pieces of molding to the stand column. Well, the tension the wire covers created ripped the molding off both sides of one of the stands. The wire covers themselves are also very hard to make look right and actually come in two different pieces. Getting them in a perfect curve is near impossible and since you are bending black plastic, part of it turned kind of white from the bending. I'm sure Sanus makes some very good products, but this isn't one of them.

Cracked

I tightened the screw holding top plate to the pole a bit too hard, I guess, because I noticed (a few days later) a big crack in the pole! I'd only wanted to have the screw head flush with the plate so it wouldn't hit my speaker. Filled the crack and covered it up. Bummer.

just ok

The good News. This stand comes in a variety of heights. It does need a littel help in design however. First. The platform you place your speakers on is small. A real consideration no matter what size or shape speaker you have. Second. To hide the speakercable the back of the stand has a black plastic piece that is supposed to bow to a half round to hide the speaker. The problem I had is that I could bend the plastic into the grooves to make the "bow", but the plastic kept popping out. As a result, I gave up and my speakers hang off the back of the stand. I chose to live with it, but if you are looking for a very clean look, this will bother you.

Very Nice Stands

Like some of the others said, when it arrived the package was pretty beat up and one end almost open. Looked like it had came open and then retaped, as the parts pouch was partly open. Luckily no damage. The stands work and look great, they are a perfect fit for my Polk M10's. The assembly was easy, the only thing I found difficult was the plastic wire covers on the back. My speakers where already wired and the wires hid in the baseboard so I had limited movement of my speakers. I found out though that if you put them in place and let it sit for a while it will get the bend shape that it needs before you actually position the speaker on them and then installing the covers over the wires. I have the rubber feet on mine that are sitting on carpet that is medium height. They seem more stable with the rubber feet than the spikes to me. Another thing is the speaker just sitting on top, I like my speakers secured a little better than that so I put thin black velcro on the bottom of the speaker and the top of the top plate, I just didn't like the ability of speakers to move if it was bumped, so far it works great. In all I'm very pleased with the stands. The price I think is a little high, but I got over it when I seen how much better they look in the living room than the metal ones I had before, they look like they belong.
