Re: Speaker Stands & Furniture


I agree with Brent on this one. DIY stands wouldn't be to hard and would be far cheaper then buying if you are up for it.

As far as resonance goes I would suggest using a dense foam to decouple the speakers from the stand rather than getting a stand that can be filled with a material. Proper decoupling leaves you with a lighter stand (they can still weigh quite a bit) and will remove all possibility of resonance while using a filled stand might just change the audible resonant frequencies emitted by the stand. Also, some pre-made decoupling units such as the Auralex Gramma allows for adjustable angled placement of the bookshelves which can also be a plus.
