I have a small listening room and listen in the near field. The 7" stands elevate the mid range drivers to my ear level in my listening chair. I love the way my "classic" 803s sound. I recently upgraded my small system's CD player to a Linn Ikemi. I'm sitting here in audio Nirvana listening to Patricia Barber's Cafe Blue. By the way, the 7" stands look cool. Joel

I do not hear much difference in bass characteristics but do prefer having the speakers on the stands compared to without. However, it is a bitch to move if you use the spikes for the stands... not to mention N802's are not light. BTW, recently I hooked up a 50W/ch tube integrated amp and was amazed at the sound. Anyone out there driving their N802's with tube amp? Ki
