Need stand recommendation for Gershman studio IIs

Hello,

I'm in process of buying a pair of Gershman studio IIs.  10" W X 14" D x 17" H and 50 lbs each.  I've heard 20" is suggested stand height.

Q1: Any recommendations for stands?  Hegel apparently sells them, but not sure if $1500 stands are appropriate for speakers that list $3650

Thanks for your time

Q2: PS what do most people put between 50 lbs speakers and the stands?   Blue tack?  Puck vibration thing(e.g. isoacoustics) ? Cones? (and more cones between stand and floor--yikes)

+1 for Sound Anchors. (I'm a Gershman and Sound Anchors dealer.)

1. deKay,

Speakers are going on a hardwood floor.

2. Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Two things:

a. Target is a Canadian brand speakers stand (like Pangea but sturdier) which gets good reviews and someone in Canada with same speakers used them.

b. Because speakers are 10 x 14" and larger than the top plate on many stands I may use model that offer larger top plate.

The MoFi 20" or 22" (linked above) look good.

I have used Target HR's and still own them.

My take with non-slab floors is that I prefer rigid but not too heavy stands (I filled the HR's approx. 1/4-1/3 full with sand blasting sand - forget the specific type but you need to wear a mask when handling it).
