speaker stand

Orator's elevated platform

A speaker stand is a support structure that holds an audio speaker at an optimal height and position for sound quality.

Stands range from simple tripods for portable speakers to heavy, vibration-dampening pedestals for studio monitors.

The bookshelf speakers sounded much better once I got them off my desk and onto proper speaker stands.
