Solidsteel UL Series speaker stands
Solidsteel launches UL Series speaker stands in two heights
The new range succeeds the company’s NS Series and keeps the focus on loudspeaker support as part of the playback chain. Solidsteel is positioning the stands around mechanical damping, decoupling and Italian manufacture for standmount speaker systems.

Solidsteel has introduced the UL Series speaker stands, a new range intended to succeed its NS Series models. The launch gives the Italian audio furniture maker two stand options for standmount loudspeakers, with the design focused on support, damping and isolation rather than simple placement height.
The company describes the UL Series as part of the overall listening system, with its structure developed to manage vibration between the loudspeaker, stand and base section. Solidsteel says the design is intended to improve mechanical damping and provide decoupling between the vertical frame and base.
The range is designed and manufactured entirely in Italy. The first models are the UL-4 and UL-6, giving dealers and buyers two height options within the same construction family.
