issue of speaker stands


I've been using my old floorstanders as stands for my rear speakers (monitors). Figure I ought to get stands and sell the floorstanders. What are the associated issues? How much to spend, what to look for, etc? The speakers are Snell K.5-IIs. The stands need to be taller than my couch. Other than that I'm pretty clueless. Help? Thanks. -Dave

Check out the following address for a nice selection that can be purchased online.

If you think you may eventually use them for two channel main speakers, buy nice "one piece" metal stands (like the 28" Target HR70 or the 24" HR60).

If not and they will be for rear channel use only then go by looks/price (inexpensive bolt together stands should be fine for the application).
