Good speakers will always benefit from the best available stands. It would not be foolish to spend $1500.
Need stand recommendation for Gershman studio IIs
Hello,
I'm in process of buying a pair of Gershman studio IIs. 10" W X 14" D x 17" H and 50 lbs each. I've heard 20" is suggested stand height.
Q1: Any recommendations for stands? Hegel apparently sells them, but not sure if $1500 stands are appropriate for speakers that list $3650
Thanks for your time
Q2: PS what do most people put between 50 lbs speakers and the stands? Blue tack? Puck vibration thing(e.g. isoacoustics) ? Cones? (and more cones between stand and floor--yikes)

20” stands seem kinda low as the tweeter will likely be below your ear level. These are not aggressive speakers in the highs so I’d think you’d want the tweets more on ear level that would likely require the more common 24” stands. I’d look for something like these that are very reasonably priced and sand/lead fillable to add mass for better sound, and I agree spending $1500 for stands for these speakers is a bit silly when there are many much more reasonable and very good stands available out there. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=31264 Here are a couple from Audio Advisor… https://www.audioadvisor.com/new-pgds200-24 https://www.audioadvisor.com/new-pgds400-24 Hopefully this shows you there are very good options 80% - 90% cheaper than the $1500 stands. Great speakers BTW. Best of luck. |
Another thug comment from down deep. Those are excellent speakers and well worth it. Sound Anchors are a good suggestion as @soix said. |
