Epos ST 12 stands


Has anybody tried these speaker stands on a Harbeth Compact 7s? Are the results favorable? I'm looking for alternatives to the Sound anchor stands or the Skylans.Thanks for any input.

I am using them under the Super HL5's and you will find others using them at the Harbeth Users Forum.

For me, they replaced the cheap but decent solution, the Ikea 17" Lack plant stands. I am not sure how much the 3" height difference contributes to the difference in sound, but I definitely lost some bass when moving to the Epos. Many people seem to have a bass boom problem with Harbeths, but not me, so this was not such a great development. Other than that, they seem to work okay. Harbeth is a lossy cabiniet design and some people argue that you want to pair them with an open-framed, non-filled stand like the Epos, but I question that argument.

I hope to try a pair of Skylans in the future. Are you looking for an alternative to Skylan or SA because of price or is there some other reason?
