New Gallo 3.5's

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?

Scott and I traded a few emails, and he was great to work with, but in the end I decided to work with a family friend who builds custom furniture locally. He and I were able to sit down and discuss face to face exactly what I wanted, and all I'll have to pay for is materials. I should be getting the stands very soon, and I'll put up a separate post, with; pictures, details, and my impressions of how the stands, and the different things I've tried in the interim, effected the sound.
