The Cambridge Audio Minx Support 600P Black is the ideal stand to showcase the satellite speakers from the Minx range. Designed to complement the elegant design of these compact speakers, this adjustable stand combines premium materials, practical features, and a sleek aesthetic. Its high-gloss lacquered steel and UV-tempered glass structure, together with an integrated cable management system and a wide height adjustment range, make it an essential accessory for optimizing the sound spatialization of your hi-fi or home theater setup.
The Minx Support 600P demonstrates remarkable technical expertise in the selection and assembly of its materials. The vertical tube, made from high-gloss lacquered steel, offers optimal resistance to mechanical stress while maintaining impeccable aesthetics. This lacquered finish, applied through a rigorous industrial process, resists minor scratches and retains its shine over time.
The base of the stand cleverly combines steel and UV-bonded tempered glass. This ultraviolet radiation bonding technique ensures a durable molecular bond between the materials, eliminating the risk of separation even in the event of significant vibrations. The tempered glass, heat-treated to increase its strength four to five times compared to standard glass, provides exceptional stability while preserving the sought-after visual transparency.
The total weight of 2.9 kg per unit attests to the density of the materials used. This mass directly contributes to the overall stability, reducing unwanted resonances that could affect sound reproduction. The precise assembly of these components reflects Cambridge Audio’s attention to technical details that directly impact acoustic performance.
The 600P’s height adjustment mechanism spans a range of 392 mm, allowing positioning between 720 mm and 1112 mm. This considerable range enables precise adaptation to different listening configurations, whether it’s a low sofa, standard armchairs, or a standing setup. The hex nut locking system ensures the chosen position is maintained, even with frequent handling of the speaker.
The Minx speakers are attached via 6 mm threaded inserts integrated into the back of each satellite. Cambridge Audio provides the necessary M6 screws and plastic adapters, ensuring secure assembly without risk of damaging the speaker enclosures. These plastic adapters protect the lacquered finish of the speakers while evenly distributing tightening pressure.
Installation on different types of flooring benefits from a dual solution. The four spike feet, pre-installed on each base, effectively penetrate carpet fibers to anchor the stand securely. For hard floors (wood, tile, laminate), rubber protective caps slip over the spikes, preserving the surface while maintaining excellent stability. This versatility eliminates the need for additional accessories depending on the type of flooring.
The integrated cable management system is one of the most appreciated features of the 600P. The hollow vertical tube, with an internal diameter of 9.5 mm, allows discreet routing of speaker cables from the base to the speaker. This solution visually eliminates connections, preserving the clean aesthetic sought in contemporary setups.
The size of this conduit accommodates most cable gauges used for satellite speakers, generally between 1.5 and 2.5 mm². For larger gauge cables, an extension with a thinner cable may be necessary—a solution commonly adopted by users with no perceptible impact on the performance of speakers in this range.
The high-gloss black lacquer finish matches perfectly with Minx speakers of the same color, creating a cohesive visual ensemble. This lacquer, applied in multiple layers and polished, offers a deep, intense black that pairs elegantly with contemporary environments. Its easy maintenance—simply dusting with a microfiber cloth—keeps it looking new over time.
The 600P is specifically designed for Minx satellite speakers equipped with 6 mm threaded inserts: MIN10, MIN11, MIN12, MIN20, MIN21, and MIN22. It is not compatible with X201/X301 subwoofers or C46 in-wall speakers, which require different mounting solutions.
Although Cambridge Audio does not officially state the maximum load, the steel and tempered glass construction easily supports the weight of Minx speakers (less than 1 kg per satellite). Stability remains excellent even with the largest models in the range, such as the MIN22.
Yes, the 600P adapts to all floor coverings thanks to its dual foot system. The metal spikes are suitable for thick carpets and rugs, while the rubber protective caps preserve hard floors (wood, tile, laminate) while maintaining excellent grip.
The internal diameter of 9.5 mm accommodates most cables for satellite speakers. For gauges above 2.5 mm², it is recommended to use a thinner connecting cable between the stand and the speaker—a technique commonly used without impacting the acoustic performance of the satellites.
