Need Suggestions For Raising Speaker Height


This is a pretty silly question but I want to know how others deal with this issue. I currently use Skylan stands for my GMA Callisto monitors. I'm in the process of obtaining new speakers but all of the ones I'm interested in are much smaller than my current speakers. In order to keep the tweeters "near" ear level, I need to either buy new stands (not happening) or raise my existing stands by at least 2-3 inches. Obviously I could stick a phone book or two under the stands but prefer to fine a more stable and visually appealing solution (WAF issue).

Any suggestions?

Don't assume you need to raise them. "Tweeter at ear level" is a starting point, but not necessarily the best point. That aside, I happen to have some Herbies wooden spike feet - a grungebuster disc with a wooden base and brass spike disc, that will add about 1"+ to your speakers. If you live in the US, I will be glad to let you try them out no charge. They do raise the stands up quite a bit. Hard floors only. I wouldn't use them on carpet. Too wobbly. Let me know.
