Osiris stand owners.....

Osiris also made the Giza stands. Multi-purpose platform style stands with SUBSTANTIAL footer points that will work nicely with certain floorstanders.

I'll try and dig up my past invoice to see exactly the amount purchased -- I want to say it was 1/2 to 2/3 full, but frankly if I'd mentioned that I had a different speaker atop the stands, their recommendations may have changed.

Worth a call -- very friendly folks.

The speakers used with them are Acoustic Reality Studios, which are a Vifa Ring Radiator tweeter, 7" Scanspeak Revelator, and a series crossover.

With the speakers on the stands -- on the sides maybe a half inch or inch of overhang, front/back overhang is maybe 3 or 4 inches, and they are maybe 13 inches high or so...

Your stands are a very critical extension of your speakers. As much attention should be placed on the stands as the speakers. Please read my review on the Sistrum Mini Monitor Platform system. These are world class speaker stands based on the coupling principle. If you're leaning that way, you will want to fill your stands with their Microfil bearings. Coupling is the way to go. Go to audiopoints.com and ask to speak to Robert. He will set you free. If you want to go where few men (and women) have gone before, fasten your tympanic seatbelts, hit warp factor 2, and buy a pair of Starsound Technologies': Sistrum Mini Monitors. They'll refund your money if they don't do it for you. They do it for me: visually and sonically. peace, warren
