Hlp - my bookshelf spkr is like humpty dumpty


Have you found a way to fasten a speaker to the stand so it won't all come crashing down when it gets bumped into? No, I'm not the klutz - it's my energetic cat.

I got the stand to be less wobbly by bolting 2 strips of metal, 1/8" by 1", to the bottom. My concern is keeping the speaker on top of the stand from falling off.

If it matters, I have Paradigm studio 40s and some cheap generic metal stands. Thanks for any advice you can give me.

Those cheap generic metal stands are killing your sound. Your stands are, almost, as important as your speakers. Thy are a very real/significant extension of your speaker and will effect the sound in many ways. I don't have a clue about your cat. I believe in coupling (as you can read in my review of my monitor speaker stands) so attaching those speakers to your stands with anything less than gravity would be deleterious to your music. Perhaps floorstanders are the way to go. You could always get rid of the cat. Come on, where are your priorities? A cat over your system? good luck. peace, warren
