These high-quality speaker stands from Atacama were specifically designed and constructed for discerning audiophiles.
The stands are exceptionally stable and minimize the transmission of cabinet vibrations.
With a height of over 50 centimeters, optimal speaker placement is ensured.
Moseco XL500 speaker stands combine all the aesthetic and sonic advantages of bamboo with the adaptability, strength, and stability of double carbon steel poles. These poles consist of a 75 mm front column and two 50 mm rear columns.
Introduced as the flagship of the Moseco product range are the Moseco XL speaker stands, which are supplied in pairs and feature a substantial carbon steel top plate measuring 5 mm thick, 200 mm wide, and 275 mm deep, specifically designed to support large bookshelf speakers.
Four curved isolation gel pads are also included with each top plate to protect and dampen the cabinet of the speaker being supported. The Moseco XL500 has a total height of 520 mm without ground spikes and gel pads.
For maximum stability, Moseco XL stands are designed around a triple carbon steel tube structure. These tubes consist of two large 50mm diameter rear pillars which are nicely matched to a single oversized 75mm diameter front pillar; all finished in an attractive matte black. All three tubes are designed to be filled with Atabite SMD 7.5HD filler to add mass and reduce overshoot (two packs per stand should be sufficient in most cases).
Moseco XL also features handcrafted 40mm thick bamboo base plates, which are both aesthetically pleasing and offer acoustic benefits in terms of resonance dampening. In any case, significantly better than traditional metal or glass materials otherwise used in speaker base plate design. To maximize the performance of the bamboo, the three steel tubes were individually adjusted in mounting holes, which allow for improved lateral support and thus ensure flexural rigidity and stability.
Each bamboo base plate comes complete with four adjustable 8 mm bright zinc plated steel spikes with locking nuts to aid levelling and add an extra layer of insulation (two packs of Atacama HD-S spike shoes can be purchased separately should it be necessary to position the posts on delicate flooring).
For additional stability and sound dampening, the Atacama Mass Loading Base Plate Pack can be used with Moseco XL.
All Moseco XL500s come with adjustable M6 floor spikes and mini gel pads that can be attached to the top plate to protect the base of your speakers.
Two height options are available; a choice of either 515 mm or 615 mm can be specified (without spikes and isolation gel pads).
The color choice here is matt black matt as standard and the base plates are supplied in dark bamboo. The Moseco XL500 speaker stands are made in the UK.
Bamboo is a natural product, so some slight color variations between panels may be possible, and the colors will “mature” or even change over time if the stands are placed in direct sunlight. These slight color changes can also occur when trying to combine a pair of Atacama Moseco XL speaker stands with another Atacama product that is based on bamboo. Atacama sources all bamboo products directly from sustainable forestry.
For every speaker stand, you will find a suitable model for your audio components in our Hi-Fi Racks category.

From Aerospace to Audio Excellence
The story of Atacama began in 1969 as a supplier in the demanding world of aerospace. The company earned the trust of renowned clients such as Rolls-Royce and British Aerospace, perfecting its skills in high-precision metalworking.A Passion for Sound Ignited
However, a passion for audio remained very much alive within the company. In 1987, Atacama began developing a revolutionary HiFi loudspeaker stand. Initial reactions were positive, but a focus on the core aerospace business meant the project was initially put on hold.A Dream Comes True
In 1989, a new family member joined the company, bringing the potential of these loudspeaker stands back into the spotlight. In the early 1990s, economic challenges compelled the company to diversify its product range. Atacama reimagined the concept of the loudspeaker stand, recognizing its unique qualities: Performance-Oriented Design: Superior acoustic isolation and excellent value for money compared to industrial-looking competing products. Visual Design: A design aesthetic that perfectly complements high-end HiFi systems.The Atacama Brand Takes Flight
In 1992, the company introduced the elegant "SE" series of loudspeaker stands under the Atacama brand. A targeted marketing campaign—along with glowing reviews from *HiFi Choice* and *What HiFi?*—helped the SE24 model earn the coveted "Best Buy" and "Hi-Fi Accessory of the Year" awards.A Commitment to Innovation
Building on this success, Atacama expanded its product range in 2001 with the introduction of the award-winning Equinox series of HiFi racks. The company's technical expertise led to the exploration of new materials, with bamboo composites coming particularly into focus starting in 2011. This innovative approach yielded not only sonic and functional performance advantages but also offered an eco-friendly alternative to traditional hardwoods.The Apollo Brand Joins the Family
The acquisition of Apollo HiFi in 2013 enabled the company to pursue distinct developmental paths. While Atacama focuses on bamboo and performance-oriented design, Apollo caters to customers who value a traditional wood aesthetic as well as practical features, such as vinyl storage solutions.A Tradition of Award-Winning Design
Over the years, both brands have consistently garnered acclaim. Atacama racks—such as the Eris Eco 5, the Evoque Eco 60-40 Standard SE, and the Evoque Eco 60-40 SE2 (crafted from bamboo)—were awarded the "Equipment Support of the Year" title between 2013 and 2023. The Moseco speaker stand also achieved a remarkable streak of annual awards from *What HiFi?* Apollo’s modular Storm 6 HiFi system, as well as the new Atacama Elite Eco 24 rack, recently received the prestigious 5-star rating as well.The Future of HiFi Furniture
Atacama’s passion for innovation remains undiminished. The speaker stands in the NeXXus series impressively demonstrate this commitment, offering extensive customization options regarding height and top-plate size. Thanks to the recent acquisition of the HiFi Racks brand, the company is poised to further expand its range of HiFi furniture and finishes in the future. Atacama Audio and Apollo HiFi remain dedicated to a singular goal: not merely to meet expectations for HiFi speaker stands and AV rack systems, but to exceed them. Customers can expect further innovative products in the coming years as well.2 x Atacama - Moseco XL500 speaker stands in dark bamboo and black
