crooked speaker stands?

Hey,

Kind of a nit-pic concern here. I recently bought and put together some new Atlantis speaker stands. They feel solid and strong, especially after I sand-filled them. They are 21" two-pole design.

My concern is... if I look down on the top plate where the speakers rest and compare the edges of that square to the edges of the floor base, they are not flush. One stand is off more than the other.

I put them together well I think and can't think of anything I could have done wrong or should change in how I assembled them.

Has anyone else experienced this?

The root of the problem has been described well by others already.Your top plate is not lining up on the vertical with the bottom plate.Something is off.I believe the machining must be poor on this design .But you can fix it with the help of a big square ,or easier make a jig byt puting together two plywoods that form an "L" shape and they form a true 90 degree angle.Then put your stand in there on it's side and make apropiate adjustments,until both
plates touch the plywoods.When they erect buildings they could easily run into same problem but they don't ,right?
