Stands for LS3/5a's


Looking for recommendations for stands for LS 3/5a's. Is there a definitive one for use on hardwood floors?
Much appreciated.

Glide, I have a second system w/ Spendor 11 ohm LS35A's. (Associated equipment: AirTight ATM300 8W SE amp, Supratek pre, NBS/AudioNote wire, Sony AX7ES CD player). I use Osiris stands and they sound very good. Osiris went out of business about two years ago and you can find them around @250 used (heavy to ship in two separate boxes, like most good stands; negotiate the ship with seller). Compete easily w/ Target R4's and are better looking with narrow front profile and round columns, which I think looks congruent with a small speaker like the LS35A. But its spiked (which are removeable)...

But dont let that deter you: get some protective brass discs for under the spikes from a dealer of Audiopoints cones. Others also have good metal discs out now, so look around the cone manufacturers for some. Good luck, its a great speaker.
