congrats on finding a good deal on speakers that you really like.

I prefer tilting the speakers back so the tweeter is aimed at seated ear height, thus shorter stands, and a method of tilt, like these referenced above
1. Tilt or Non-Tilting stand. (Non-Tilting stand will not have rear lip on top plate) 2. Choose a size for the top and bottom platforms (up to 10" X 10") (Top and Bottom Platforms can be the same size or different) 3. Choose a height for your stands. .......................................... The tilt, combined with angled toe-in combine to alter the reflections from walls, ceiling, floor (both direct and reflected) |

Note: matching your speaker’s color (not grain) You could ask for unfinished oak, and a few waste strips of that oak (from that batch).. Then you need to try on the waste strips until you find the color that works with that oak that ends up very close to your finish. OR, asked for painted, black or send a color chip, paint can, .... You get the idea, make them look like factory or custom. |
