What this brief review cannot convey is the cleverness of Sanus' engineering or the precision of its craftsmanship?seen, for example, in small details like the mounting flanges that align the support tubes to the stands' floor plates, or their precision-molded outrigger feet. As you assemble a pair of Steel Foundations stands, you may find yourself thinking, "I can't believe how easily these are going together; these are really well done." The bottom line is that Sanus' SF-series stands look great, are easy to assemble, and they do well all the things an audiophile needs good speaker stands to do. Enthusiastically recommended.
