New Gallo 3.5's

Those spikes on the Stein Audio site are unobtainium. I know because I came
up with the idea of using these particular spikes in the first place. They were
sourced from Parts Express and cost $14 for four of them, but left the
PartsExpress catalog years ago. If anyone knows where to get them now, please
post the info because I know a couple folks who would love to find them. They
do work like a charm under my Ref 3s. I believe that the stands pictured on
the linked site belong to KK Mui, with whom I collaborated along with Scott
Stein originally. It was KK's idea, BTW, and he made it happen. Dave

Hi Dan,

Well as Dopogue, mentions those spikes are no longer available. Also my stands are different than the stands you see on the Stein Audio website. They are of my own design, that I asked Scott to produce for me. My stands are larger than the stands on the website. They are 1.5" taller and 4" wider and deeper, so even without the outboard spikes the footprint will be wider still. My design can be seen here...

I also contacted another member here who made his own outriggers, and I may make some similar to those. We'll see.

The fellow who sold me the outriggers for my Ref. 3.1s has a link on his site for a wide variety of spikes. Perhaps there is something there that will work properly with the Stein Audio stands...?

Good Luck!

Well my Stein Audio stands should be here towards the end of this coming week, so I'll shoot a note off to Paul over at Soundocity about the outriggers once the stands are here.

Thanks RW, Barry

Any updates or pics of your custom Stein Audio stands, Barry?
