Re: My Current HT Setup


Yeah they're home made. I'm not too fussy on them but they are pretty solid. A friend said they looked like a bridge.

I used a sheet of 1/4 inch rubber between the speaker and the stand and bolted them to the stand through the provided holes in the speaker's base. I used low profile rubber feet on them as well.

When I move them down to the basement they will need to be about 3 feet off the floor (stage) so I'm debating whether to make new stands or mount them to the wall.

If I make new stands I will probably make them out of black granite or some other type of polished stone. I will be mounting the subwoofer onto a slab as well.

I've heard a good stand can bring out the full potential in a speaker. That assumpton works off the principal that a heavy object will resist the movement of the speaker and stop vibrations from the speaker going into the floor and vibrations from the floor going into the speaker.
