good affordable speaker stands

dinyaar · #1 7th January 2008, 12:47 PM

Hi,

I have been looking for decent stands for my B&W 805 s for some time and was really surprised at the lack of options here in mumbai. Finally last week i managed to get a stand(FS 700) which is an exact replica of the B&W 700 series stand from audio vision at 8000/=. I believe they are made in china but the quality seems very good. Anyone wanting stands should check them out. They are solid, are sand/lead fillable, have spikes and are finished beautifully and at 1/3 rd the cost of the original.

Regards.

Designer Audio in Mumbai also have a nice pair of glass stands at roughly the same price (around 8000).

Hi Vijay,
Am sure all the dealers in bglore will offer u options. Here in mumbai there are suddenly too many options!!!! Sadly after the horse is bolted!!! I believe chinese stands are everywhere, exact copies of stands from the reputed brands at a fraction of the cost.
Regards

Hi,
AVI has some which are copies of the B&W 600,700,800 stands at about 8K per pair, Lakozy makes them to ur specifications and choice of materials for about the same amount and boomerang makes nice, sturdy metal stands(very solid but not the most aesthetically appealing) for 9K. Have not seen them myself but the audio people in chennai have some nice racks and stands though they are costlier.If u dont mind spending 30/40K then soundsmiths have the Dyna stands which are great.
Lastly its not too difficult or expensive to get them made by a decent fabricator.
Regards
