They are only for those models, which have the chassis designed to attach them...

The product page for the monitors says:
“MOUNTABLE ON NORD PIANO 4, NORD GRAND & NORD STAGE 3 REV B”

https://www.nordkeyboards.com/products/ ... no-monitor

I’m guessing REV B may be the newer models with the updated control panel.
NS3-88, NS3C, Casio CT-S1, Radial Key Largo, Westone AM Pro 30 IEMs, Rolls PM55P Headphone Mixer, K&M 18880 Keyboard Stand with 18881 Second Tier, Bose S1 Pro, JBL 305p MKII Monitors, Zoom Q2n-4K, Behringer XR18 Mixer

Everyone tried or want to try to modify Nord Stage 3 88 rev.A to add the monitor brackets? Is it necessary to make a new holes for the screws? Or if anyone already own the Monitors, can he give us parameters of hole distances? I own Nord Stage 3 88 and desperately want to mount the monitors somehow.

Same here, I have a theory about how I could mount these last night. I'm going to buy the monitors and see if I like them + my Nord sheet music stand. If successful I'll report back.

For anyone searching — I used Velcro to attach these in back, and it works! It feels sturdy enough, though it’s only been a few hours. Each one is using just one of the 3”x1” strips, link below. These are 3” in from the edge of the wood, which seems like a good distance, especially with the music stand.

Me too… I will keep you posted. The Velcro says it can hold 2.5 lbs per square inch. These are 3 square inches (so should hold 7.5 pounds), and each speaker is about 6 pounds…. In theory that should be enough….

whats your experience with this monitors? I'm looking into getting a stage 3 ( or maybe give it some time to see if a new stage comes out soon. ) but as far as monitors I'm undecided still, I was looking at the ones you have or Yamaha HS8. Planning to just play at home not for gigging at least not any time soon.

I was upgrading from a very basic Behringer Keyboard Amp, so I think any studio monitors were bound to be a vast improvement. I can't speak to the Yamahas you mentioned (I'm sure they're solid) -- but I've been really loving these monitors so far -- especially for some of the synth sounds! And most importantly, those Yamaha speakers aren't red :)

Update on this -- the velcro wasnt QUITE strong enough. No disasters but it was peeling over time.. Unfortunately I just went for these monitor stands instead, which work fine:
