Monitor Stand Speaker Mount

thingiverse

A 5.1 speaker mount system designed for desktop monitor stands attaches to a center column using a unique design. The side speakers slide onto the frame through a screw slot on the back, while the center speaker sits directly on the center platform. The system was created specifically for Vivo brand desktop monitor stands with a center column diameter of approximately 36mm. A comprehensive schematic and STL files for decorative embellishments are included; these can be omitted if desired. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask! After printing, the following quantities should be assembled: Column Attachment: Print one unit, which will require two Arm Pieces, one on each side. Arm Piece: Six units are required, but three per side may be sufficient depending on the desired speaker position. This value can be adjusted based on individual needs. Connecting Bracket: Eight units are needed, with one for each Arm Piece and another for the speaker mounting plates at either end of the arms. These brackets fit snugly between the Arm Pieces and also between the last Arm Piece and a female cutout on the back of the Speaker Plate. Center Platform: One unit is required, featuring a cutout in the bottom that should fit securely over the center column. If you prefer not to include the lighting control panel piece, use the CenterPlatform_noControlPlate instead. Speaker Plate: Two units are necessary, one for each side. Decorative elements on the sides of the speaker plates include: Pipe: One unit Pipe Connector 90: Two units The central glowing sphere component consists of: Sphere: One unit Eight Pipe units and four Pipe Connector 45 units When printing these components, use a clear filament. The Sphere and Pipe pieces can be printed with single walls; however, thicker walls may provide additional strength without the need for resin. If you choose to coat the sphere and pipes with clear resin, a small drop of white dye can enhance the appearance. To ensure the pipes fit properly within the receptacles on the sphere, cut them slightly to prevent bowing outward. This will allow the pipes to sit flat on a level surface without requiring significant adjustments. Lighting: RGB LEDs were used in this design, despite only showing blue in the pictures. A potentiometer controls each color, enabling any combination of colors achievable with an RGB LED. The schematic for the circuit controlling the LED color is included with the files. The Pipe Connector 90 piece features a holster for a 5mm LED inside it. Each decorative glowing side piece contains an LED at the top and bottom of the Pipe Connector 90.
