Abstract:

A support stand for a high fidelity speaker which comprises a pair of vertical side panels converging toward each other at their front ends where they are connected to each other. The bottom edges of the side panels lie in a horizontal plane which defines the resting surface for the support stand. The upper edges of the side panels are inclined downwardly from front to rear so as to lie in a downwardly and rearwardly slanted plane which defines a rearwardly inclined supporting surface, for the speaker, which is raised above the resting surface for the stand. The upper edges terminate at their rear ends in upstanding edges which define stops for the speaker which is supported on the supporting surface of the stand.
