How tall are your speaker stands


What is the average height of stands for monitor speakers?
Would 30" stands be too tall?
The speakers are 12" tall and not too heavy.

Thanks

Although tweeter at ear level is the general rule, experimentation can work wonders. I had a pair of Silverline Audio SR-11s sitting on 24 inch stands with tweeters at ear level. The sound was good but if I slouched down the sound was better. I moved them to taller stands which raised the tweeter about six inches. Huge improvement.
More recently I had the opposite experience with PMC DB1+ speakers. They started out with the tweeter at ear level but after some experimentation I found the sound improved with the tweeter about 4-6 inches below ear level.
Experiment to get what suits you best has become my rule.
I have found that for me 42"-44" ( tweeter height ) works best......I have 20" Stands and the tweeter is 22" ( from bottom of monitor cabinet ..It all equals aprox 42" height of tweeter ( center ) from floor .......42" is aprox ear height from my listening chair......
Tall enough to get on all the rides.

Stand height depends on tweeter height in relation to the listening position. The tweeter should be at approximately ear level.
Timrhu is right, it depends on the speakers.

Generally speaking, I like tweeters to be above my ear level. This usually produces a more spacious sound minus the brightness. Another advantage is higher off the floor and clean up the bass even more.

But there are exceptions. My large speakers sound better with my ears at tweeter level.
