These Millenium monitor stands are a real bang for your buck if you have a limited space that can't fit standalone floor stands and are looking to compromise with a pair of quality desk stands.
Features like:
- the angle adjustment,
- the cable clip that keeps the cables neatly managed
- the nice rubber pad surface (that comes off, btw)
- the rubber feet that go between the desk and the stand itself and help reduce vibrations and resonances to a great degree in my experience
are alone well worth the 10€ more when compared to similar products in this price category, for example the DM2s. I even got mine at a discount so that was a nice added bonus.
I use them with a pair of ADAM Audio T5V speakers and they get the job done. Keep in mind though, that the surface area is not really suited for monitors bigger than those. My ADAMS have 3-4 cm on the front and the back which aren't supported by the stand, but it's absolutely enough for stability and safety of the speakers in my opinion. Still, I wouldn't recommend going with monitors much bigger than that for those stands.
All in all, if you're looking for something robust and stable with a few added bells and whistles compared to similarly priced products of this class, I highly recommend these stands!
P.S. If you absolutely have to have your monitors on the desk, then go for it. However, if you have the space and capacity for standalone floor speakers that go behind your desk, I'd actually advise you to go that route as opposed to buying these Millenium stands. Floor speakers are always the ultimate way to go as far as home studios are concerned (especially mid to well acoustically treated ones) in terms of potential desk resonances, comb filters due to reflections bouncing directly off the desk and of course sweetspot positioning. ;)
