- Assembly and mounting hardware
Overview
The Gauder Akustik Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands are a pair of dedicated speaker stands engineered specifically to support the Arcona 40 stand mount loudspeaker. This is an accessory, not a speaker, and it makes no sound on its own. Its job is to hold the Arcona 40 rigidly and at the correct listening height so the tweeter aligns with the ear at a normal seated position for the most stable, focused imaging.
Built from aluminum and sold as a matched pair, these stands couple the loudspeaker to the floor to minimize unwanted movement and resonance that can smear detail. A solid, low-resonance foundation lets the Arcona 40 deliver the phase-accurate, coherent presentation that Gauder Akustik designs toward with its ultra-steep, symmetrical crossover philosophy. Because the stands are sized precisely for the Arcona 40 footprint, the speaker sits securely and predictably.
These stands are for owners of the Gauder Akustik Arcona 40 who want to hear the speaker perform at its best. Placement and rigid coupling are as important to imaging as the electronics driving the system, and a purpose-built stand removes the guesswork of height and stability.

How the Arcona 40 Stands Compares
Gauder Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands vs IsoAcoustics GAIA I
The GAIA I are isolation feet that thread into a floorstanding loudspeaker to decouple it from the floor, while the Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands are full-height stands that raise a stand mount speaker to listening height and couple it rigidly. Choose the Gauder stands when you own the Arcona 40 and need proper support and height. Choose the GAIA I when you already have a floorstander and want vibration isolation underneath it. See the IsoAcoustics GAIA I.
Gauder Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands vs IsoAcoustics GAIA II
GAIA II are smaller isolation feet aimed at lighter floorstanders and larger stand mounts, focused on decoupling rather than elevation. The Gauder Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands instead provide the structure and height a bookshelf speaker needs. They address different needs, so the choice depends on whether you need a stand or isolation feet under an existing setup. See the IsoAcoustics GAIA II.
Gauder Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands vs Devialet Treepod Phantom Ultimate 108dB
The Treepod is a stand designed exclusively for the Devialet Phantom active speaker system, while the Gauder Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands are made for the passive Arcona 40 stand mount. Each is matched to its own speaker and is not interchangeable. Pick the stand that corresponds to the loudspeaker you own. See the Devialet Treepod Phantom Ultimate 108dB.
Works With
These aluminum stands are a dedicated accessory for one specific speaker, so pair them with the Arcona 40 they are built for and an amplifier to complete the system.
- Arcona 40 MKII SD This is the exact stand mount loudspeaker the stands are sized and designed to hold, placing it at the correct height for stable imaging.
- Mission 778X Integrated Amplifier Gauder makes no electronics, so an integrated amplifier is required; the 778X drives the Arcona 40 and completes a compact system.
- EverSolo DMP-A6 Gen 2 A network streamer, DAC and preamplifier that adds streaming sources to feed an amplifier powering the Arcona 40 on these stands.
- Onkyo Muse Y 40 A streaming integrated amplifier that provides both source and power in one unit for the Arcona 40 mounted on these stands.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Gauder Akustik Arcona 40 Aluminum Stands?
They are a pair of dedicated aluminum speaker stands made specifically to support the Gauder Akustik Arcona 40 stand mount loudspeaker.
Are these stands a speaker?
No. They are an accessory and make no sound on their own. They hold the Arcona 40 loudspeaker.
Are the stands sold individually or as a pair?
They are sold as a matched pair, one stand for each Arcona 40 speaker.
Which speaker do these stands fit?
They are sized specifically for the Gauder Akustik Arcona 40 stand mount loudspeaker.
Can I use these stands with a different speaker?
They are designed for the Arcona 40 footprint and height, so they are intended for that model rather than other speakers.
What are the stands made of?
They are made of aluminum, providing a stable, low-resonance foundation.
Why do I need dedicated stands for a bookshelf speaker?
Proper stands place the speaker at listening height and couple it rigidly to the floor, which improves image focus and soundstage stability.
Do the stands change the sound of the Arcona 40?
They do not add sound, but by providing correct height and a rigid foundation they let the speaker perform as intended.
Do I still need an amplifier?
Yes. Gauder Akustik makes no electronics, so the Arcona 40 always needs a separate amplifier regardless of the stands.
Do the stands help with imaging?
Yes. Rigid coupling to the floor and the correct tweeter height are key to stable, focused imaging.
Are the stands filled or spiked?
They are dedicated aluminum stands built to couple the speaker to the floor; we can confirm setup details for your room on request.
Can I buy just the Arcona 40 without the stands?
Yes, the Arcona 40 loudspeaker is available separately, but these stands are recommended to hear it at its best.
Will these work with the Arcona 60, 80 or 100?
No. Those are floorstanding models. These stands are for the Arcona 40 stand mount.
How tall are the stands?
They are built to place the Arcona 40 tweeter at a natural seated listening height; contact us for the exact dimension.
Are isolation feet an alternative to these stands?
Isolation feet address decoupling under an existing speaker or floorstander, while these stands provide the support and height a bookshelf speaker requires. They serve different purposes.
Do the stands come assembled?
They ship with the necessary mounting hardware for assembly; instructions are included.
What warranty comes with the stands?
Gauder Akustik provides a 10 year parts and labor warranty to the original owner.
Are you an authorized Gauder Akustik dealer?
Yes. All Elite Audio is an authorized Gauder Akustik dealer, so your purchase is fully supported and covered.
What else do I need to complete the system?
You need the Arcona 40 loudspeaker and a separate amplifier or streaming amplifier to drive it, plus these stands to support it.
