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.

I like steel, especialy since it is mass loadable.

I'd look for some osiris audionics stands. they should be $200-250 used, but are as good as any stand I've ever heard and are built to withstand wwIII
