Hi Fi Speaker Stands in India

Can anyone recommend a good pair of Hi Fi Speaker Stands for bookshelf speakers?

Hi! Mohan & Vick,
If you want custom built spk stands then contact Mr. Murthy of Finesse: 080-25588077. He makes stands, racks for me on a custom order and they are damn good. Give him a call and mention my name. He takes time, but the product is great.

Hi Prithvi,

I am based in Assam.

How about a DVD rack with shelves for storing my DVD with their cases ?

I have an OTOBI (Bangladesh) CD Rack with six shelves made of laminated particle board, but as the shelf height is less (6"), DVD cases do not fit when kept upright on the shelves. I need an identical rack with shelf height of 8" for storing my DVDs. Can provide the drawing/pics etc to help Mr Murthy. The OTOBI rack is completely dismantleable for easy shipping.

I can ask my Bangalore based cousin to take delivery of the same.

Have you checked with Mr. Murthy of Finesse: 080-25588077

Alternatively contact Prithvi of Absolute Phase.

Hi! Guys,

Mr. Murthy has made especially for Absolute Phase a ditto copy of the Target Stands that I need for my ProAc Responce 1sc Clients. This thing is laser cut and the stands weigh in excess of 45kgs each. Dont even think of lifting it urself. ITs a 2-3 man effort.

Each pillar is filled with a special sand that is dried completely and all the four pillars have different qtys of sand. Anyone wanting to spend more can replace this sand with a sand that has very minute granules, sadly that is priced at rs 35/kg and each stand takes over 20-25kgs. A further upgrade is to use lead shots, but again cost goes through the roof.

I will take a pic and post it shortly. The price per pair is Rs 22,000/- These wonderful stands made such a difference for my ProAcs that my clients could not believe that the sound of a bookshelf can change so much for the better when placed on the most rigid and heavy stands. These stands are on demo at Absolute Phase. (Sorry no home demo's)

At this time availability of HiFi furniture (AV racks, speaker stands, etc) in India is spotty at best. Options would be to DIY or to get these things from abroad (i.e. Singapore or Malaysia) at almost half the price.
