Using this speaker stand is a breeze. First, find a flat surface for it. Then, adjust the 4 feet to the right height for your needs and to keep the stand stable. Place your bookshelf or Bluetooth speaker on top. You can use the multiple wire holes in the cable management system to run your speaker cables neatly. Store your records in the storage section. When it comes to maintenance, just wipe it down with a dry cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals. If you need to move it, be careful not to tip it over. Also, don't overload the storage section with too many heavy records. That's all you need to know to enjoy your speaker stand for a long time.
