Best stands so baby doesn't knock speaker over


Looking for the sturdy bottom weighted stands so my baby doesn't knock off my Klipsch RP600s or whatever other bookshelves I'm playing with at the time.  I'm not really looking for audiophile anything as these are for a bedroom. 

It's hard to tell "sturdy-ness" online.  I would love a granite or marble base for weight but not sure that's affordable.

Any one have any experience with this?

@oldhvymec,

I kicked the woofers out. Sounded so cool.

Man oh man did we have different Dads.. I wouldn’t be typing this right now if I would had done that.. Really.. I would have wound up adopted to someone else for sure.. Not a bad idea come to think of it.. If I would have survived. Kicked out a speaker.. OR a hole in a wall, IT NEVER happened..




Your words struck a chord.

My experiences ran along very similar paths.

Many people back then, in the 60s and 70s were living under different kinds of financial pressure.

We were barely even allowed into my dad’s room where he kept his stuff.

If we had kicked out his speakers...
I might not be writing this now.

In this instance, some kind of wall bracket, like I used to have with my Rega bookshelves, might be the way to go.

There might be some necessary sacrifices involved such as drilling holes into cabinets, ouch!

Luckily the template and screws Rega provided worked out quite well and the speakers survived relatively unscathed for many years.
