Speaker Stands For the Sonus Faber Concertinos

I wouldn't go cheap on the stands. Most speaker manufacturers don't know shit about speaker stands. They may be expensive for the right reasons, but I just don't know. They might have some other place make them. They are incredibly important to your speakers. They are truly an extension of the speaker. I can't stress the importance of doing the stands correctly. Now, I don't know how much their stands cost, and I am not a fan of Lovan stuff, or any speaker stands that Audio Advisor sells, but you should seriously consider some high quality stands. You did choose the Concertinos. Those stands (the ones you plan on buying) sound like their going to be a very weak link in your system. Good speaker stands, like great speakers, are expensive for a reason. You can get KILLER stands for about $600. Your speakers will sing.

Go on line to Audiopoints.com. Ask to speak to Robert. You are going to love him. They are developing a speaker stand that is right up your alley. It might seem expensive, but I don't think there is a pair of stands for over a thousand dollars that are going to be better than these. I am going to buy a pair for my future Revel M 20s. That is going to be a Fall purchase for me, and I am going to buy the speaker stands I just mentioned. After you talk to him you may too!
Happy listening,
Warren

Fullrun, this is true,what you say, but if the $700 is actually buying something worth a lot more because you are buying it used, then I can see a good rationalization for spending the money on the stands.(even new) If that is not the case your statement is right on. Good listening always..
