Spendor SP1 and SP1/2 owners...

In a last-ditch attempt to get back to basics, and perhaps start enjoying music rather than analyzing it to see what's wrong, I bought a 20 year old pair of SP1s in good shape. The problem is, I really don't want to spend over $400 for a pair of Sound Anchors. I'm wondering if I could build a pair of stands that would complement the SP1s sonically. If so, I have four quick questions: should they be wood or steel, high mass or medium mass, solid or open frame, and finally, what should the height of the platform be? Thanks to all you gents and ladies who have something to contribute to this thread...

Mp666: $450 is great for these. Can't imagine how you could have done better. Let me know how you like them.

Yours stands should be at least 17 inches high and metal,
preferably spiked as the sp1 was introduced with spendors
own stand which was fabulously well made.(Try a BC1 with a
spiked stand,a touch of bass tightness helps)

Lovan's Jazz Speaker Stands seem to work well-I own a pair of the 18" stands. I'm 6'4" so they are a good match in height for my ears. They make a filler for the stands also that I will be trying. They come with spikes,
