Heavy-duty steel columns and a weighted MDF base together deliver exceptional stability and low resonance. An integrated cable routing channel through the centre column conceals speaker wire along the full length of the stand, and both adjustable rubber feet and carpet spikes are included for secure placement on any floor. The taller companion to the ST28, it suits standard sofa listening positions and larger rooms where a higher tweeter placement is preferred. Available now at Vinyl Sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAcoustic performance through correct placement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ST34 elevates bookshelf speakers to seated ear level and separates them from shelves, walls, and furniture that introduce early reflections and boundary bass reinforcement. When a speaker operates close to a reflective surface, energy from the cabinet excites that surface and the reflections arrive slightly delayed relative to the direct sound, smearing transients, reducing image focus, and adding coloration not in the source. Placed on the ST34 at the correct height and away from boundaries, the speaker recovers the precision and stereo depth it was designed to deliver, while the weighted MDF base adds low-positioned mass to reduce column resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction and stability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavy-duty steel tubing forms the column, resisting flex and vibration under load to keep a level, stable platform through long listening sessions. At 34 inches the column is taller than the ST28, and the weighted MDF base compensates by keeping the center of gravity low and the stance tip-resistant. The 10.8 x 8.9-inch base plate provides a stable footprint without dominating the room, and the 7.9 x 5.9-inch top plate fits a broad range of bookshelf cabinets. Both adjustable rubber feet for hard floors and carpet spikes for soft surfaces are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKanto ST34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBookshelf speaker floor stands (pair)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34 in (86.3 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLoad capacity (per stand)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 lbs (13.6 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColumn material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMDF (weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTop plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.9 x 5.9 in (20 x 15 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottom plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.8 x 8.9 in (27.5 x 22.5 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable management\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInternal, through centre column\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFloor contact\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdjustable rubber feet and carpet spikes (both included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAvailable heights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e28 in and 34 in models\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndoor only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKanto, Vancouver, Canada\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the Kanto ST34 speaker stands?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Kanto ST34 are a pair of 34-inch universal floor speaker stands built with heavy-duty steel columns and a weighted MDF base, for bookshelf and standmount speakers up to 30 lbs per stand. They position speakers at ear level for standard sofa listening, route cables through the centre column, and ship with both rubber feet and carpet spikes for universal floor compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the Kanto ST34 and the ST28?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe ST34 and ST28 are identical in construction, materials, load capacity, plate sizes, and accessories, differing only in height: 34 inches versus 28 inches. The ST34 suits standard-height sofas or rooms where a taller tweeter position better matches the listening geometry, while the ST28 is better for lower seating. Both come in black and share the same cable management and floor options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Kanto ST34 compare to the Kanto SX26?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBoth stand at similar heights but with different priorities. The SX26 is a fillable mass-loading stand with an isolation foot system optimised for maximum resonance reduction, while the ST34 offers a cleaner traditional design combining a steel column with a weighted MDF base for listeners who prefer simplicity and a minimal aesthetic. Choose the ST34 for a clean look and easy setup, the SX26 for mass-loading and isolation performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Kanto ST34 safe on hardwood floors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. With the included adjustable rubber feet it is safe on hardwood, laminate, and tile, providing a non-marking contact surface that protects floor finishes during use and repositioning. For carpet, fit the included carpet spikes in place of the rubber feet to anchor the base and prevent shifting during playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat speakers are compatible with the ST34?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe ST34 works with bookshelf and standmount speakers whose base fits within the 7.9 x 5.9-inch top plate and weighs no more than 30 lbs per stand, including Kanto's own YU and YU6 powered speakers. For an unusually large or irregular base footprint, check the cabinet base dimensions against the top-plate size before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Kanto ST34 have cable management?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. An integrated cable routing channel runs through the centre of the steel column from base to top. Cables feed in at the bottom and exit near the top plate, keeping the full length of cable hidden inside the stand and off the floor, with no separate sleeves or clips needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere can I buy the Kanto ST34 in the USA?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Kanto ST34 floor speaker stands are available at Vinyl Sound with shipping across the USA.
