Speaker stand height




I have a pair of PSB Stratus Minis on their factory 25" stands, but these seem too tall for my room/listening position. My listening chair is somewhat low and laid back and this i do not want to change. So I was thinking of buying lower stands so that the speakers are closer to my ear but am worried about messing up the overal tonal balance of my PSB's. Should i Be worried about the sound changing too much with lower stands, or will it simply give me more bass and a more direct sound?

btw iv'e experimented with putting these speakers on 10" concrete blocks, with a title to compensate for the height, and this seemed to make the sound much fuller. This was many years ago though and my memory could be fooling me.

Sorry the new AgN just wadded my post . Just sayin rear facing tweeters add a slight delay to the highs instead of drilling you between the eyes. My single drivers dont have too much up high, and the tilt gets the stage up to where you would expect it to be. You know they do sell 16" concrete blocks, turn em so you see the holes.
Wood stands that you put together are cheaper to pack and ship than welded metal stands that take up a lot of room on the truck. Plus, welded stands are more labor intensive and usually heavier, so there is additional cost there. So, the likely reason PSB uses mdf stands is cost.

As for sound differences, I dont know that you can attribute sound differences to the stand material, all other things being equal, which they never are.
Does anyone know if its ok to fill stands with BB's, or will they rattle. I checked out leadshot at my local gun store and they wanted $50.00 for a 25lb bag, which is pretty expensive. Copper BB's from walmart would cost much less and the weight is about the same.
Clay kitty litter.. the cheap Walmart stuff, non deodorant, non clumping kind..
A twenty five pound bag of lead shot weigh pretty close to a twenty five pound bag of copper coated steel BBs but the BBs are a lot more volumnous. Then add floor leveling powder from home center. Now thing will weigh 55lb. ugg
