MDF vs. Steel Speaker Stands


I am looking for stands for Spendor SA1's, which are 12"H x 6.5"W x 7.5" D. Do you have an opinion on whether stands with steel posts are superior to MDF posts? Any recommendations on stands that do not cost a fortune, i.e., $150 or less? (The Spendor stands for these list price $2195 small bookshelf speakers are prohibitively expensive ($650); what were they thinking?) Thank you.

The cheapest way to go is go Home Depot!!!!!!!!

1pc. of 4"x 8" x 6' ( Douglas Fir)..$8.00 (ask them to cut size desire)

1pc of 2" x 2"x ?..$20..(ask them to cut 6.5"x7.5" top base
and 12"x 13" for bottom base or larger?

Order 8 spikes for $30 and install.

I did mine and heavy enough as you can see in my virtual system w/Proac Studio 110..almost like your spendor.

Just sharing.
