Soliloquy 5.0 need stands?


My current system consist of:
Plinius 8200 MKI
Sony 333es
Arcam DV 88
Soliloquy 5.0
Rel Q150

Unfortunately, I did not get the dedicated stands for the Soliloquy speakers. I checked around and the stands may cost me between 300-500. My question is, how much performance am i losing without the stands? and since adding the stands will bring my cost to around 700-800 am i better off getting some other speakers like psb bronze or totem arro. Looking for a two way speaker to work with the Rel. By the way the speakers are on a large entertainment center. I have a 13 month old baby. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

i used to have the 5.0's with the soliloquy stands. I loaded the stands up with play sand and can tell you for a fact that your kid is not gonna knock them over. When i sold the 5.0's I hated to see the stands go with them. They make a tremendous improvement in the sound with the 5.0's bolted to them.
enjoy,
