McIntosh XRT20 speakers

Does anyone have these speakers' optional metal stands, or any pictures showing how the speakers are mounted so that I can build a set? All I've found are images showing them from the front in use with the bass cabinets (two rods and an angled stand to raise the tweeter array off the floor). Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

W1jim, or anyone else with the XRT20's-
Do you have yours mounted on the wall? How do you like the sound and what are you using to drive them? I'm wall mounted in the garage with a terribly underpowered tube amp and already in love... except for the instants when I'm jolted by believing someone is actually in suddenly the garage with me.

Sounds sublime, W1jim!

I've cross-graded to a modified Behringer EP1500 power amp (volume bypass and quieter fan, that's all), driven by grounded grid and Burson equipped DAC from China... I'm really please with the sound. It's a "crank it in the garage" set-up and when i open the door and play at loud-loud volumes, you'd actually think there's a band rehearsing when you stand 20+ ft. away. Very enjoyable to say the least.

I also bought replacement tweeters, likely from the same guy on eBay. Will do the caps rehab soon.

Looking into active equalization now... what fun these huge speakers be...
