Abstract
The kit form of subject invention consists of 2 retractable spring actuated steel legs that come in various sizes and two heavy duty fasteners that adhere to rear of musical instrument amplifiers, speaker cabinet or other device. The legs, referred to as AmpLegs, require no drilling or screws for installation on most amps or cabinets, while others require the AmpLegs Mounting Blocks accessory. AmpLegs attach to rear of cabinet via dual lock fasteners to provide support while cabinet is tilted back. Tilt angle is adjusted by detaching the AmpLegs from the dual lock fasteners and then attaching them back to the fasteners at a slightly higher or lower point on the fasteners, effectively increasing or decreasing tilt angle.
