Speaker stands height for Harbeth Compact 7es3


Hello
What is the right speaker stands height for Harbeth
Compact 7es3. Skylan makes SKY-4P20, 20" high but it seams
to be to high. I was thinking to order in 18" height. My
listening distance is 9' and it would bring tweeter to ears
level. I would really appreciate opinions. Thanks.

The tweeter should be at your ear level, this varies because not everyone uses the same chair, couch, recliner etc while listening. Look around you may find that some speaker stands are adjustable. It is also possible to adjust the stands yourself by using spikes or other devices which could change the height of the speakers. Not to difficult really.
I am using the 20" SKY-4P20 with my 7es3s and think they are just right. I have not experimented with other heights though. Perhaps your listening chair is quite a bit lower than mine. They are nice quality stands too.
If the 18" stands get the tweeters to ear level then they should work fine. I think Sound Anchor makes three 17, 19, & 20" that fit the 7s.
