Sound Anchor Stands...worth the money?

I too can attest to the folks at Sound Anchor I bought a new couch for my dedicated theater room leaving my surrounds below the level of the back of the couch, after extensive research into wall mounts "argghh" I fortunately stumbled apon sound anchor called them up and with their help designed the exact stands that I wanted. They arrived in a timely fashion with a build quality that I had only dreamed of securely packaged and easy to assemble at 90 lbs a stand and 50 lbs of sand each they did the job perfectly. I never thought much of the sonics of my Thiel scs-3's until the sat on top of these stands now I understand the merits of surround sound audio previously I just did not get it but now I see. Sound anchors highly recommended

Islandflyfisher, raising speakers off heavy carpet or rugs will improve the sound. I was under the same impressiong which is why it was years before I actually raised my speakers off the carpet. I never even bothered to use spikes as I figured my speakers were so heavy that there was no need. Boy was I wrong.

Slappy, I paid 300.00 for the center channel stand. The stand that I have is adjustable for height and angle and has rubber pads.My center channel is heavy at 50lbs so I need a sturdy stand. The other reasonable price stands were wood and fixed height or cheap sheet metal and not so sturdy. I still thought 300.00 was a bit much until I recieved the stand. Then, I was extremely happy. My amp stand was 275.00 and just as well built. My wife is very cool and actually bought the center channel speaker for me but is not "into audio". I've tried to keep her input where I can so that she feels "part of the process". She really doesn't care much but just likes the sound. However, one of her rare comments was, "that's nice stuff." She was refering to the Sound Anchors stuff.

I added SA stands to N803's and was quite amazed at the improvement they made. As for SA themselves, I dealt with the owner himself on the phone and he spent time asking me about my exact set up and was in no hurry, a real nice guy, and they were having a little Christmas party at the office when I called.

Not only are they worth the money, Sound Anchors are one of the best buys in all of audio! As close to a no-brainer as it gets.
