Skylan vs. Sound Anchor speaker stands? Comments?


Is there an appreciable difference between Sound Anchor and Skylan speaker stands? They both appear well made. Each can be filled with sand.

If you believe one is superior, please explain why.

Thanks in advance.

Grant,
Check out the system of Audiogon member, Audioot. He made his own custom stands for his AudioNote speakers. Maybe he'll make you a pair for a reasonable price.

Thanks for the link, Sherod. If I have read his system page correctly, he lives in the Netherlands.
Yes, the Netherlands. Oops! Shipping would be rather expensive for something this heavy, wouldn't it? Maybe he'll give you a diagram to build your own. (o:
Never received a response from Skylan, so that brand is out of consideration.

It's down to Audio Note, Sound Anchor, Sistrum, or custom built mass loaded wood.
It's too bad that Noel at Skylan didn't get back with you. I have read many threads where he has made custom stands for many different speakers.
