bookshelf speakers on the floor
I spend a lot of the time on the floor (bad back) and read, listen, waste all the good remaining hours of the day like a lazy cat. I tried a pair of speakers on the floor, - before moving to a stand - and noticed that they sounded better than on a stand - to my ears. When I am on the floor, they sound even better. (Yes, there are a number of things wrong with me)
Is it OK for a bookshelf speaker to be on the floor? And if so, should I put something underneath? (Should I try putting it on my stomach? Just kidding!)
Here's a link to their site that shows several ways to do it with bookshelf speakers. They cost a pretty penny since he uses local Amish talent and locally sourced maple for the stands but if you know a good local carpenter (or if you're handy with wood) you can do it for a lot cheaper. Good luck. All the best, |
Most of the wood rack vendors on this site, @timbernation1 comes to mind, have equal quality and better prices IMO. |
Those legs are solid brass and made to spec for Mapleshade and are also quite pricey. I'm afraid you'll have to peruse the threads here or go online to find something that would work. Hopefully someone here knows of some decent cones of differing heights that would work and can chime in. I don't see how Nobsound springs would work since you'll need much higher ones up front than the back and the springs seem to need a level surface to work properly. Good luck. All the best, |
