Mapleshade bedrock stands for large monitors


I've read all the hype on these stands and even tried a low cost diy version and I have to say there is something going on with what Pierre has to say. Not to say he is right, but there is definitley a different sound with his low on the floor concept. Anyone actually using his stands and what are your thoughts? Thanks!

Interesting responses, I guess it's all about choice. That is what is fun and crazy about this hobby. I will continue to experiment until I find the best sound I can live with. I do appreciate and welcome any further discussion.
Here is an interesting thought, on the experimental side.

Place your speakers upside down with the LF/Port on top.

Should equal less LF boundry interaction and.....???

I beleive this configuration is illustrated in Pierre's catalog, though it appears as though the speakers are small...not the 20" or so with most monitors.

Give it a shot and let us know.
I found my most recent Mapleshade catalog and saw the Bedrock stands again and my curiosity was piqued. I didn't order them but was wondering yet again. With the speaker monitors on the floor pointing up at a listener isn't this similar to the concept of installing mids and tweeters in the kick panels of a car? I found this blurb on CarAudioHelp "By moving the speakers away from the doors or dash and into the kickpanels we are increasing the distance to the speakers AND equalizing the distance from the listener to each speaker."

Without buying and then re-selling the Mapleshade stands is there a way I can replicate the concept to see if I hear a difference good or bad with some B&W DM303 monitor speakers I have?

Thanks
I will email you my DIY version that I used to evaluate Mapleshade's stands the best I could to try it. He does offer a 30 day money back guarantee as well.
