Looking to get the most out of your speakers this fall?

Whether you’re fine-tuning your home theater or setting up a hi-fi listening space, choosing the right stand can make all the difference in sound quality and style. Today, we’re breaking down Kanto’s top-tier speaker stands — the SPH and SLH — plus their new SB250 soundbar mount. Each one is designed to fit different spaces, speaker sizes, and setups, so let’s get into what makes them stand out.

🔸 SPH Speaker Stand — Strong, Adjustable, and Ready for Anything

The Kanto SPH is a full-size, height-adjustable floor stand that gives you 24 to 42 inches of range (14 inches total), letting you perfectly align your speakers to ear level. Built entirely from solid steel with a dual-screw locking system, the SPH keeps vibrations low and sound clarity high. It also includes rubber feet and carpet spikes, so it’s stable on any surface — hardwood, tile, or carpet. With a 30-lb weight capacity, it’s ideal for medium to large bookshelf speakers or studio monitors.

Why you’ll love the SPH:

  • Maximum flexibility for changing setups
  • Solid build for heavier speakers
  • Adjustable height for precise tweeter alignment
  • Great for users who might upgrade later or move their system around

👉 Perfect for: versatile setups, larger speakers, or anyone who wants fine-tuned control over sound imaging.

🔹SLH Speaker Stand — Sleek, Compact, and Perfect for Smaller Speakers

If your speakers are smaller or you’re working with limited space, the Kanto SLH is your go-to. It’s built for compact bookshelf, satellite, or Atmos speakers, offering 26 to 40 inches of height adjustability — plenty of flexibility with a lighter, slimmer design. Despite its minimal look, the SLH is built with a solid post and base to keep vibrations low, and it supports speakers up to 9 lbs. Cable management is built right in — your wires route neatly through the post — and it includes mounting brackets compatible with most ¼-20 or keyhole speaker patterns.

Why you’ll love the SLH:

  • Clean, minimal profile that fits any décor
  • Ideal for smaller, lightweight speakers
  • Hidden cable management keeps your setup tidy
  • Sturdy, vibration-dampening construction

👉 Perfect for: tight spaces, smaller setups, or those who love a modern, minimalist look.

⚔️ SPH vs. SLH — Which One’s Right for You?

If your speakers are heavier or you plan to upgrade later, the SPH is your best bet. It gives you more height flexibility, more stability, and greater load capacity — perfect if you’re using medium-to-large bookshelf speakers or want to fine-tune your setup. On the other hand, if your speakers are lightweight, your space is smaller, or you prefer a sleeker look, the SLH is the better fit. It’s stylish, compact, and clean — ideal for satellite, Atmos, or small bookshelf speakers. Both deliver excellent performance and stability — it really comes down to the weight of your speakers and the overall aesthetic you want for your room.

🔸 SB250 Soundbar Mount — Sleek, Secure, and Built to Adapt

To complete your setup, the Kanto SB250 soundbar mount is the perfect finishing touch. Designed for today’s larger and heavier soundbars, the SB250 supports up to 22 lbs and is compatible with nearly all rear- or bottom-mounted soundbars. You can mount your soundbar above or below your TV, attaching it seamlessly to your TV mount or directly to the wall. Its solid steel construction and adjustable design allow you to position your soundbar exactly where you want it — keeping your sound perfectly aligned with your screen for a cleaner, more professional look.

Why it’s a great add-on:

  • Supports more soundbar sizes and weights than previous models
  • Adjustable to fit different TV mount configurations
  • Keeps your audio and visuals perfectly centered
  • Built for durability, balance, and a clutter-free appearance

👉 Perfect for: anyone wanting a streamlined, unified look between their soundbar and TV.

✅ Bottom Line

Choosing the right Kanto stand (and mount) depends on your space, speaker size, and style:

  • 🎯 Go SPH for heavier speakers and more flexibility
  • 🎯 Choose SLH for compact setups and minimal design
  • 🎯 Add the SB250 for a polished, perfectly aligned soundbar setup

No matter your pick, each Kanto product brings smart design and solid craftsmanship to your home setup — helping your system look as impressive as it** sounds**.
