Does anyone own Snell EIII Speakers and/or Stands?


I have a want ad posted, but I know these speakers/stands have been out of production for quite a while, so I am considering either making these stands or having them made. Snell was only able to send a line drawing with measurements for these stands, and I could really use either pictures of the inside/bottom of the stands, or a description of how the stands are constructed, or both.
I have owned these speakers for 8 or 9 years now, using with Adcom (GTP550 preamp, 545 power), and have been extremely pleased with the EIIIs.

My cabling, both speaker and connection, is the major weak link in my current system, and suggestions for complementary cables would also be welcome. Thanks for any help or advice, and if there is an EIII owner out there who would take the time to send pictures or write a description of these stands, I would be extremely grateful for this help.

I do have a picture of the "stands" Snell offered for this speaker. It's basically a box that the base of the speaker sits in. The bases would be very easy to fabricate, I think, unless there's something else going on in this box besides air.

My brother has a pair of EIIs, though no stands. The stands seem like a good idea. The E really is a great speaker but the tweeter needs to be a bit higher to get it closer to the listener's ear level. Let's connect via email, and I'll locate the picture.
