RHTSD: How To Set Up Larger Speakers

Introduction

Setting up your RHTSD Speaker Stands for larger speakers is straightforward and can be enhanced with a few optional steps for added stability. This guide will walk you through setting up the stands, adding sound isolation pads, and ensuring your larger speakers are securely placed on top.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Adding Sand for Extra Stability (Optional)

• Step 1: Prepare the Column
  For additional stability, you can pour sand inside the stand column or place a bag of sand inside before attaching the top plate.
  • Tip: This step is optional but helps stabilize the stand, especially for larger speakers.

2. Attaching the Top Plate

• Step 1: Align the Plate
  Take the top plate and check for indents on it. These indents indicate where the holes are, helping you line it up with the holes at the top of the stand.
• Step 2: Use a Trick for Easier Alignment
  Insert a screw through the indent holes to reveal the hole locations past the film, making it easier to align the plate on top of the stand.
• Step 3: Secure the Plate
  Line up the holes on the top of the stand with the holes on the bottom of the plate. Then, use the included screws to secure the plate onto the stand using a screwdriver or power drill.

3. Adding Sound Isolation Pads

• Step 1: Attach the Pads
  The hardware kit includes sound isolation pads that you can add to the top plate to prevent speakers from rattling. Simply remove the adhesive stickers and line the pads up to the corners of the plate.
• Step 2: Adjust the Pads (If Needed)
  If your speakers are smaller than the plates, move the pads further into the plate to ensure proper placement.

4. Placing the Speakers on the Stands

• Step 1: Position the Speakers
  Once the stand is fully assembled, simply place your larger speakers on top of the stands, ensuring they are securely supported by the plates.

Conclusion

Setting up your RHTSD Speaker Stands for larger speakers is easy, and adding sand for stability or sound isolation pads can further improve the setup. Whether you're using larger or smaller speakers, these stands provide a secure and stable solution.
