At 474mm, the stand height aligns the ELYSIAN 2R's dedicated midrange driver and AMT tweeter on-axis for listeners seated in typical hi-fi positions, complementing the ELYSIAN 3R and 4R floorstanders in a full ELYSIAN R system. The 402mm-wide top plate provides a stable, correctly proportioned support surface for the ELYSIAN 2R's 334mm-wide cabinet, and the 434mm depth accommodates the ELYSIAN 2R's 462mm cabinet depth with stability. The Matte Black finish matches the contemporary trim and metalwork across all ELYSIAN R models regardless of speaker finish — Walnut High Gloss, Matte Black, or Lunar Grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDedicated Stand for Wharfedale ELYSIAN 2R:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purpose-engineered for the ELYSIAN 2R reference three-way standmount, providing correct driver height, structural support for 30.5kg per speaker, and acoustic isolation for this flagship standmount.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e474mm Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e Positions the ELYSIAN 2R's dedicated midrange driver and AMT tweeter at the optimal on-axis listening height for seated hi-fi listening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Carbon Steel Tube Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rigid column structure for maximum mechanical stability and minimum resonance transmission between the ELYSIAN 2R and the floor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Carbon Steel Top Plate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid 402mm-wide top plate providing secure, level support for the ELYSIAN 2R's 334mm-wide cabinet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardened High-Carbon Steel Base Spikes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardened spikes for coupling to carpet or floor surfaces, minimising vibration transmission and improving acoustic isolation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVibration and Resonance Control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rigid steel construction reduces unwanted resonance that would otherwise compromise the ELYSIAN 2R's bass articulation, imaging focus, and midrange clarity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatte Black Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Exclusive Matte Black finish matching the refined metalwork and contemporary visual identity of the complete ELYSIAN R Series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold as a Pair:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supplied as matched pair for stereo ELYSIAN 2R installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eELYSIAN 2R Stand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWharfedale ELYSIAN 2R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColumn Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-carbon steel tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTop Plate Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-carbon steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase Spikes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardened high-carbon steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight (on plinth)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e474mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e402mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth (with badge)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e434mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte Black only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold As\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the Wharfedale ELYSIAN 2R Stand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wharfedale ELYSIAN 2R Stand is the dedicated speaker stand for the ELYSIAN 2R reference three-way standmount loudspeaker, available at Vinyl Sound Toronto. It is constructed from high-carbon steel tube with a high-carbon steel top plate and hardened high-carbon steel base spikes, standing 474mm tall and measuring 402mm wide and 434mm deep, finished in Matte Black to match the ELYSIAN R Series metalwork. It is sold as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does the ELYSIAN 2R require a dedicated stand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ELYSIAN 2R weighs 30.5kg per speaker — twice the weight of the ELYSIAN 1R — and requires a stand with sufficient structural rigidity and load-bearing capacity to prevent resonance and movement at this mass. The 474mm stand height positions the ELYSIAN 2R's dedicated 6\" midrange driver and AMT tweeter on-axis for the listening position, which is critical for the natural vocal presence and imaging precision that the ELYSIAN 2R's three-way architecture delivers. Generic stands may lack the structural rigidity or correct dimensions for the ELYSIAN 2R's 334mm-wide cabinet and 30.5kg weight per speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the ELYSIAN 2R Stand differ from the ELYSIAN 1R Stand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ELYSIAN 2R Stand is larger and heavier than the ELYSIAN 1R Stand, reflecting the ELYSIAN 2R's greater cabinet dimensions and 30.5kg per speaker weight versus the ELYSIAN 1R's 15kg. The 2R Stand measures 402mm wide and 474mm tall versus the 1R Stand's 340mm width and 476mm height, and the 434mm depth versus the 1R Stand's 287mm depth accommodates the ELYSIAN 2R's larger cabinet footprint. Both stands use identical high-carbon steel tube construction and Matte Black finish for visual consistency across the ELYSIAN R system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the ELYSIAN 2R Stand come in other finishes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The ELYSIAN 2R Stand is available exclusively in Matte Black, which complements the contemporary trim and metalwork across all ELYSIAN R Series speaker finishes — Walnut High Gloss, Matte Black, and Lunar Grey — maintaining visual consistency throughout any ELYSIAN R installation regardless of the speaker finish chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Wharfedale ELYSIAN 2R Stand in Toronto or Canada?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wharfedale ELYSIAN 2R Stand is available at Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada, located at 100 West Beaver Creek Road, Unit 3A, Richmond Hill, Ontario. It is sold separately from the ELYSIAN 2R speaker and is available alongside the complete Wharfedale ELYSIAN R Series at vinylsound.ca or in-store at our Richmond Hill showroom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wharfedale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49211775090940,"sku":null,"price":1199.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0116\/1773\/0617\/files\/ELYSIAN2RStand_I.jpg?v=1781886760","url":"https:\/\/vinylsound.ca\/products\/wharfedale-elysian-2r-speaker-stand","provider":"Vinyl Sound Canada Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
