Any steel 14” to 16” speaker stands out there?

I am looking for a pair of quality stands for my new toys, jbl 4429’s.  I have them on some cheap wooden 12” stands currently but they need to come up about 4” and get on a solid stand.  The jbl stands are only 8” tall and angled up.  Rather try a 16”er but can’t find one...  I should have kept my old Spendor se100 stands!  Any thoughts?  The jbl’s weigh 62 lbs. each.

Just in case you missed it, deercreek can do custom work to the height you desire.

Another +1 for Sound Anchor. Welded steel, sand filled, custom for you speakers, good price. I have 16-inch, four-posters for 95-lb  PMC IB2i. The stands weigh around 80 pounds each, look good, and sound far superior to PMC's own stands.

Why not buy some wood, make some boxes (as sturdy as you like), make some ledges at the top to set the speakers in, fill with sand and you're done!  Can probably build in a day and save bundles of cash for new music!

If you take @dweller's advice, use 19mm 13-ply Baltic Birch plywood, the stiffest wood (we're all adults here, right? ;-) available. But the Sound Anchor stands ARE really good; I too have a pair.
