Hi Fi Speaker Stands in India

[square_wave]

Stay away from stands like these for bookshelf speakers. Everything about that design is to be avoided.
Stands need to be sturdy with a heavy and firm base which rests on steel spikes. They need to be designed keeping audio in mind.
Stands like these will vibrate and resonate along with the speaker sitting on it and muddy the sound. The bass will be affected the most. The imaging will be all over the place.
You will need to stretch your budget to at least 6k to get some decent stands. The really good one will cost 15k and above.
If on a tight budget, go to some good websites like these:
Target HiFi Audio Video Racks, TV Stands, and Speaker Stands - Target
Speaker Stands
Now take printouts of these and give to some decent metal worker and get one made. Try and find some worker who has done these before.

Hi folks,

Will building speaker stands with MS be ok as compared to PVC?

hey muthusami,

looks like this site is more a spread-the-gospel site than a speaker stand site.

apart from that, the stands do not seem to be suited for use as speaker stands.

perhaps the extrapolation went like this " what is good to place 'THE BOOK' on, should be be good to keep speakers on, and these speakers shall spread the gospel, so let us not bother about niceties like the frequency extremes - if the speakers can reproduce the male voice of our best padre spreading the message, that should be good enough".

well, nothing much to say, except that people who make stands should focus on stands, and people who spread God's word should focus on spreading God's word

I got a pair of Atacama Nexus 7i for Rs 8,000 using shopyourworld.com. These stands are rated high by WhatHifi and you can find a many independent reviews. The Soundstyle Z2 was also available for about the same price (they cost less but are heavier, hence higher shipping costs).

Shopyourworld.com had taken an extra 2000 for customs but had passed the stands as a low value item and didn't pay the customs any money. After hounding them for a month I got my money back.

The local Atacama dealer, Audio Planet, had quoted 10,500 for the Nexus 6i. If you want to a foreign branded stand, you must consider importing. The local dealers charge a huge markup. If you can get someone to gift it, you can skip the customs charges legally.

Tono systems stand looks pretty decent. I did get one (for bookshelfs). shipping and packing fine. I was looking for 22" height at the minimum, but nikhil said they dont have it. I opted for 20.5" and its pretty ok. With the speakers i cannot find much difference of my required height (22"). Option for filling (sand or lead shot) and separate path for the cables to be inserted looks good.
Simple to assemble. Easy setup with the details provided. Package arrived without any damage. Please note its VFM for the product. If you are tight on budget you can opt for this. I think it should not be compared with rack ranging above 8000Rs.
Again with offers for HFV members here, its a good price.

how did you realise that they had passed the stands as a low value item ?

using the rack seems like a nice idea..but it is difficult to get something sturdy with right height...for instance, the one in the link is too high and too light..

High End Speaker Stands ,AV Racks and accessories now availble at SoundFoundations.in

^^ I'd recommend the soundfoundations stands highly. I'm using a pair for my book-shelves. They are built very well and finished very well. A lot of thought has obviously gone into their design.

Gr8 I'm also planning to buy PSB Image series.
Can you tell me about the damages??

 

[magma]

ahh the Norstone range of racks and stands
the stands are way too light gauge though when i saw them on one of my trips to HK- i think they hardly weigh 5 kgs per stand with a fiddly 3mm thick base plate ( just over 10 kgs per pair)

 

[Chida]

Hydra, how much did that cost???

I am also looking for my bookself (rear) speakers.
