monitor in the middle, speakers mounted on the sides? I want to get my speakers far enough back from my desk listening position for them to actually work well, but I need to use the space directly behind my desk. The answer?.. use easily movable mounts!

Weight is the possible issue.
“Support monitor (speaker) weight: 2.2-17.6lbs”

That’s pretty light for a speaker…

Each speaker is less than 8 pounds. I will attach the vesa mount to the stand, flip it upwards, set the pad on the mount (friction mounting it lol) and set the speaker vertically on top. Straps are optional. orientation is either horizontal or vertical.
