Introduction: In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of setting up your Rockville RSM 3 speaker stands. The kit includes everything you need to assemble two stands, with easy-to-follow steps for securing the poles, attaching plates, managing wires, and adjusting the height. Let’s get started!

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Unboxing Your RSM 3 Kit

• Included in the kit:
  • 2 Base plates
  • 2 Poles (for the middle of the stands)
  • 2 Top plates
  • 2 Wire management clips
  • All necessary hardware for assembly

2. Assembling the Stand

• Attaching the Pole to the Base Plate:
  • Take the pole and align the threading at the bottom with the threading on the bottom plate.
  • Screw the pole in securely to the base plate.
• Attaching the Top Plate:
  • Use the black Allen screw and the Allen key to attach the top plate to the pole.
  • Ensure the ridges on the top plate are facing downwards (this is important for proper placement).
  • Tighten the screw until the plate is secured.

3. Optional Add-Ons for Enhanced Setup

• Non-Slip Rubber Pads (optional):
  • Peel off the adhesive backing and place the non-slip pads on the top plate to help keep your speakers securely in place.
• Wire Management Clips (optional):
  • Attach these clips along the pole to keep speaker wires organized and prevent tangling.

4. Attaching the Feet

• Flat Rubber Feet (optional):
  • Line up the threaded end of the rubber feet with the holes in the base plate.
  • Screw them in until secure.
• Metal Spikes (optional):
  • Attach the metal spikes to the base plate by aligning the flat ends with the holes.
  • Adjust the nuts on each spike for balance, then tighten them in place.
  • Attach the metal discs to the tips of the spikes for added stability.

5. Placing the Speakers

• Place your speakers securely on top of the top plates once the stands are fully assembled.

6. Adjusting the Height of the Stands

• Pinless Auto-Locking Mechanism:
  • To raise the height:
    • Loosen the knob on the pole.
    • Lift the stand to your desired height, then tighten the knob to lock it in place.
  • To lower the height:
    • Loosen the knob again.
    • Press the air assist button above the pole to lower the stand.
    • Hold the button down until you reach your desired height, then tighten the knob to lock the stand in place.

Setting up your Rockville RSM 3 Speaker Stands is a breeze with these simple steps. Whether you need adjustable height, wire management, or stability for your speakers, these stands provide a versatile and easy solution.
