Child Damage Mitigation


Last week the wife and I brought a new baby home - our first - and it's been fun introducing her to the music we love. It dawned on me this morning that this child will be crawling before I know it and my lovely pair of Magnepan 3.7's might be sitting ducks. They're less agile than the cat, closer to the ground than the house plants, and more fragile than the couch. As I've calculated I've got approximately 6 months to find a way to prevent any child-induced damage so your input is greatly appreciated. What can I learn from the grand wisdom of AG about how to keep the kid away from the speakers?

Too late for a vasectomy. Have you researched child surrender laws in your area? You might still have time.
i imagine it will be longer than 6 months before you even consider leaving a mobile child unattended. Play pens and child gates should work fine until they're old enough to understand that some places are OB. The kitchen is probably a more dangerous environment. As in climb the cupboards for cookies (or vitamins), get hands on the butcher knife to hack a piece of cheese, or put toy dishes on the real stove.
if you’re set on keeping the Maggies (and the kid) you might look into aftermarket stands that are more stable and possibly weighted.
