What You Need to Know
Why Do Speaker Stands Matter?
If you’ve invested in a quality pair of standmount speakers like the MoFi SourcePoint 8, the stands you put them on make a real difference. A good speaker stand does three important things: it brings the tweeter to ear level (which is where most speakers are designed to sound their best), it provides a stable, vibration-resistant platform (so cabinet energy goes into the music, not into your furniture), and it positions the speaker at the right distance from walls and the floor for the best possible bass response and imaging.
Without proper stands, even the best bookshelf speakers can sound muddy, unfocused, or bass-heavy — simply because they’re sitting on a shelf, desk, or surface that isn’t ideal. A dedicated stand solves all of that.
What Makes These Stands Special?
These are MoFi’s own custom-designed stands, built specifically for the SourcePoint 8 loudspeaker. At 22 inches tall, they’re sized to place the SourcePoint 8’s concentric driver at a typical seated ear height when you’re in a chair or on a sofa.
The three-pillar steel construction is sturdy and well-damped. The pillars can be filled with sand or lead shot for added mass, which further reduces vibrations and improves bass definition. The top plate measures approximately 10 × 10 inches — sized to match the SourcePoint 8’s footprint. The base plate is wider at approximately 12.5 × 13 inches for a stable foundation.
Each pair comes with multiple foot options: spike feet for carpeted floors (which pierce through carpet to couple directly with the subfloor), protective spike discs, neoprene pads, and felt pads for hard surfaces like hardwood, tile, or laminate. This means you can set them up on any flooring type without damaging your floors.
Will These Work with Other Speakers?
While these stands were designed specifically for the MoFi SourcePoint 8, they can also work with other standmount speakers of similar size and weight (up to 30 lbs per speaker). The 10 × 10-inch top plate accommodates speakers with a similar footprint. That said, if you own SourcePoint 8s, these are the stands MoFi designed and recommends to get the most out of them.
Who Are These Stands For?
You own (or are buying) MoFi SourcePoint 8 speakers and want the stands MoFi designed specifically for them.
You want a traditional ear-level speaker placement with the tweeter at seated listening height.
You need a stand that works on any floor type — carpet, hardwood, tile, or laminate.
You want the option to mass-load the pillars with sand or shot for maximum stability and bass performance.

Features & Specifications
Rugged Steel Construction
Built to Last, Built to Perform — The entire stand is made from solid steel, providing excellent stability and vibration resistance. Steel construction helps decouple the speaker from the floor, so vibrations from the speaker cabinet don’t transfer into your furniture or flooring, and vice versa.
Three-Pillar Fillable Design
Add Mass for Better Sound — The three upright posts can be filled with sand or lead shot to increase the stand’s mass. More mass means less vibration, tighter bass, and a more solid foundation for your speakers. Each post measures approximately 2 × 2 inches and stands about 22 inches tall.
Matched Top Plate
Sized for the SourcePoint 8 — The top plate measures approximately 10 × 10 inches, designed to match the SourcePoint 8’s base dimensions. The plate is 1/8-inch thick steel.
Stable Base Plate
Wide Footprint for Stability — The base plate measures approximately 12.5 × 13 inches, providing a wide, stable foundation. It’s roughly 1/4-inch thick steel.
Multiple Foot Options
Works on Any Floor — Spike feet for carpet (pierce through to the subfloor for maximum coupling), spike protective discs for hard floors, neoprene pads for vibration isolation, and felt pads for scratch-free placement on hardwood, tile, laminate, or vinyl.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these the same stands as the SourcePoint 10 stands?
No. The SourcePoint 8 stands have a slightly smaller top plate and base plate than the SourcePoint 10 stands, and a 30 lb weight capacity (vs. 50 lbs for the SP10 stands). They’re specifically sized and rated for the SourcePoint 8, which weighs about 28 lbs per speaker. If you own SourcePoint 10s, you’ll want the SourcePoint 10 stands instead.
Do I need to assemble these?
Yes, some assembly is required. You’ll attach the three upright posts to the base plate and top plate. It’s straightforward and typically takes about 10–15 minutes per stand. Assembly hardware is included.
Should I fill the pillars with sand?
It’s optional, but many audiophiles find that filling the pillars with sand, lead shot, or a similar material improves bass definition and overall stability. The added mass helps reduce vibrations. Play-grade sand from a hardware store works well. Fill to about 90% capacity to leave room for settling.
Will these scratch my hardwood floors?
Not if you use the included felt pads, which are designed for hard surface floors. The stands also come with neoprene pads as another option. If you have carpet, use the included spike feet, which pierce through carpet padding to couple with the subfloor for the best stability and sound.
Can I use these with speakers other than the SourcePoint 8?
Yes. While designed for the MoFi SourcePoint 8, these stands will work with other standmount speakers that have a similar footprint (up to about 10 × 10 inches) and weigh 30 lbs or less. A Crutchfield reviewer noted they work well with Bryston Mini T speakers, for example.
How tall will my speakers be on these stands?
The stands are approximately 22.5 inches tall. The SourcePoint 8 is 18 inches tall. Combined, the tweeter will be at roughly 34–36 inches from the floor, which is close to typical seated ear height for most listeners. This is the height MoFi designed for optimal listening.
What’s the difference between these and the MoFi Low Slung Stands?
The Low Slung Stands are a different product designed for the SourcePoint 10 — they’re low wooden cradles that sit the speakers close to the floor with an upward tilt. These SourcePoint 8 stands are traditional 22-inch tall steel stands that bring the speaker to ear level. They serve different purposes and fit different speakers.
Do the speakers come with the stands?
No. This listing is for the stands only, sold as a pair. The SourcePoint 8 speakers are sold separately. If you’d like to purchase both together, check our SourcePoint 8 with Stands bundles in Black, Walnut, or White.
