Speaker Footers and Amp stands

I'm wondering if there are 'worthwhile' advantages to placing floorstanding speakers onto stands, braces, outrigger etc, sorts of devices. sonically?

...and are amp stands always weight and type, specific or not?

Like having an amp stand for a 100lb SS amp and then using it for a 80-90lb tube amp... or is the diffs so large as to indicate another amp stand when getting another amp?

As some I've seen have a range of wieght and non-specific as to type, I'd sure hate to have to change stands out with amps too, as I am thinking about getting one.

Hmmm... no one uses stands for floor mounted speakers?

Sound anchors used to be the popular choice, I would have thought some newer and better items had come along since them.

Any experiences there or swapping out amps using the same stand would be very graciously received and appreciated.

Irish65 Gee thanks. I didn't know about the Sistrum Sp-101 being a suitable support for speakers.

I am assuming from your post they suitably improved things enough to suuport the costs.

I will look into it.

The triangular shape has enough surface area to also add stability?

I'm gonna have to look them over more. What I'm seeing doesn't make much sense.... a container with little mushy pebbles in it? Is that what these are?
