With its 62 cm height, this stand positions bookshelf speakers exactly where the tweeters need to be: at ear level when seated. The S05 uses a tried-and-tested design from Triangle, the Picardy-based manufacturer located in Soissons since 1980: a central aluminum column combined with a molded glass base and a non-slip top plate capable of supporting loads of up to 25 kg.
The S05’s central column is made of aluminum, a choice that combines mechanical rigidity with vibration damping. This column can be filled with fine sand or metal pellets (sold separately under the reference “Stand Filler”) to increase the stand’s inertia and reduce the transmission of resonances generated by the movement of the drivers.
The bottom plate is a molded glass slab fired at high temperature. The molding process gives the glass higher density and strength than ordinary glass.
Triangle supplies two sets of accessories to adapt the S05 to different floor coverings. The height-adjustable steel spikes are suitable for soft floors like carpets or thick rugs: they pierce through the covering to anchor the stand directly to the hard surface underneath. The rubber pads are intended for hard floors (tiles, hardwood, polished concrete) where spikes could scratch or slip. Protective discs are also included to protect delicate surfaces.
The total height varies slightly depending on the chosen option: 62 cm with the rubber pads, 64 cm with the metal spikes.
The plate that supports the speaker is 18 cm wide and 29.5 cm deep. These dimensions accommodate most bookshelf speakers on the market, including compact models like the Triangle Comète or Capella, as well as larger speakers from other manufacturers. The non-slip coating prevents any movement, even during dynamic passages at high sound levels.
A cable channel is integrated at the rear of the column. The speaker cables can run down inside the column and exit at the base, clearing the visual field and simplifying system organization.
Triangle offers a dedicated mounting kit for Comète 40th speakers. This system allows the speaker to be screwed directly onto the S05’s top plate. The entire assembly then becomes one solid unit, with decoupling occurring only at the base of the stand. This option will appeal to those who want to maximize mechanical rigidity between the speaker and its stand, or who are concerned about accidental tipping (children, pets).
The plate dimensions (18 × 29.5 cm) and the 25 kg load capacity allow the majority of bookshelf speakers on the market to be installed. The non-slip coating keeps the speaker in place without any fixing. Only the screw-mount kit is reserved for the Comète 40th.
Fine sand fills gaps more completely and adds extra damping thanks to friction between the grains. Metal pellets (Triangle Stand Filler) provide greater mass for the same volume and pose no risk of moisture. Both options work; the choice mainly depends on what you have on hand or your preference.
On thick carpet or rugs, the spikes pierce through the soft covering and stabilize the stand on the hard floor beneath. On tiles, hardwood, or concrete, the rubber pads prevent scratches and provide sufficient grip. If in doubt, try both configurations and keep the one that feels most stable.
The rear opening easily lets a pair of standard speaker cables through. For very thick cables or multiple pairs, check the available space before installation.
A pair of S05 stands can support the side or rear surround speakers. The 62–64 cm height places the tweeters slightly above the ear of a seated listener, in line with recommendations for surround channels. For the main front speakers, check that this height fits your setup.
No. The S05 works without filling and weighs 4.5 kg per stand. Filling improves stability and reduces vibrations transmitted to the floor, but the effect varies depending on the speaker, the floor, and listening levels. Many users start without filling and fine-tune later.

Beautiful appearance, classy and high-quality, be careful with the thickness of the pre-mounted speaker cable, it's not always easy to feed it through the speaker stand

Must-have for your Triangle bookshelf.
Beautifully finished. The glass base plate looks very chic.
It comes with custom-made plastic bags you can fill with sand. This is recommended, as the stands themselves are not very heavy.
