Sound Dynamics 300Ti - Stand Height.


I appreciate if an experienced owner of the Sound Dynamics 300Ti speakers tell me the optimal height of the speaker stands to use.

The tweeter is mounted 21 inches from the bottom of the speaker. My "ear level" is 43 inches from the floor. As a general guideline, the tweeter should parallel ear level, which calculates to a 20 to 22 inches stand; however, the original stands were only 12 to 14 inches high which puts the tweeter significantly below ear level.

Please tell me your "specific" experience with the 300Ti. I bought the speakers recently and am shopping for the right stand.

Thank you.

Hi Aaron. Your old Sota Star gets almost daily use here!

I have used my Sound Dynamic 300ti speakers on Sanus 20" metal stands with excellent results. I have tried lower stands, but I don't think the soundstaging was as good.

Be sure to keep the speakers away from the side walls. The "Pearson rule of thirds" works well for these speakers.
