What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
88 lb load limit
Per platform. Covers most mid-field and larger nearfield monitors, but check your speaker's weight before committing.
Detail 03
20 x 13 inch footprint
Sized for mid-field cabinets. Your monitor's base should sit within that, not overhang the edges.
Detail 04
Decoupling platform
Stops the speaker from vibrating the desk or shelf under it, which is what muddies low end and blurs bass detail.
Detail 05
Sold as described here
Confirm quantity before ordering. Stereo pairs need two platforms, one per monitor.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check whether your monitors sit above or below ear level first

- 03Measure your monitor's base against the 20 x 13 inch top
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need one or two?
One per monitor. A stereo pair needs two. Confirm the listed quantity before checkout.
02What's the difference between down fire and up fire?
Down fire tilts the speaker downward, for monitors mounted above ear level. Up fire tilts it upward, for monitors sitting below your ears on a low desk.
03Will this fit my monitors?
The top surface is 20 inches wide by 13 inches deep and holds up to 88 pounds. Measure your monitor's base footprint and weight against those numbers.
04What does a decoupling platform actually do?
It isolates the speaker cabinet from the surface underneath so vibration doesn't transfer into the desk or shelf. That transferred energy is what smears low-end detail.
