I had a pair of KEF Q90 speakers that were a bit too short to me. I put them up on 10" stands so that the UNI-Q tweeter would be at ear level with me. It was ok for a bit but then I found the music was off no matter if I toed them in or had them firing fwd. Thinking back this may be the tonal balance change that Rrog mentions above. When I took them off the stands and kept them below ear level but elevated them with wood blocks that I got from Home Goods everything was a lot better.
To me give the height adjustment a try but if the speaker maker decided the floorstander to be the height it is then I would not veer to far away from that.
