Best 27' speaker stands?

For the first time in 30 years, I getting a pair of small monitor speakers, the LSA1s, and need speaker stands. I have not kept up with reviews or opinions about which are the most favored speaker stands. The new LSA1 weigh 24 pounds each. Since the speakers cost $2500, I really don't want quite expensive stands.

Lindisfarne, they're better as in they sound better? If so, how do they sound better?

Call Ty at Tyler Acoustics (after visiting his web site) and he'll build the dimensions you'd prefer to have. If you want substantial speaker stands ....

Glitch947, I suspect that Lindisfarne prefers the sound of steel to MDF.

Just curious, but what does steel sound like? And MDF in comparison?

Steel has a higher resonant frequency unless you dampen it with sand or lead. MDF would dampen the sound generally, but many other factors, such as the weight of the speakers and the nature of the floor would affect this all.
