Without having owned a pair of Mye stands I can’t really offer anything of substance to suggest them over MagnaRisers, but keep in mind that pretty much anything is an improvement over the stock stands that ship with the smaller Maggies. And I do mean ANYTHING…
I recently had the good fortune to pick up a pair of original MMG’s from their original owner. (I bought my first pair when they first came out years ago.) The previous owner kept them in excellent condition - including the original shipping carton, packaging, etc. Very cool.
Except for those original flimsy-ass tongue depressor factory stands. I placed an order for a pair of Magnariser Airbornes if not to improve things audibly, then at the very least aesthetically.
While waiting for the Airbornes I fashioned a truly hideous yet acceptable hack using the flimsy factory stands. I knew from previous experience with the .7, and 1.7i models that they sound best straight up, no chaser. I went off to the local 5Below store and purchased 8 five pound barbells. I then used a level and tilted the factory stands until vertical, then applied the weights to hold them in place. Voila!
Not pretty, but effective.
Anyway…I can’t attest to any of the audible claims made by MagnaRisers, but they certainly didn’t subtract anything, and they’re rather spiffy to look at, too. The people who them are really nice to do business with, professional, and courteous. For that reason alone I recommend the MagnaRisers.
