Speakers on floor?

Mapleshade has lots of unusual advice.

That was funny.

I liked the Bedrock Stands in my medium sized room. Money back guarantee and good resale value too, if you use them for a while. I also used them successfully with small floor standers without the extreme tilt back.

The idea behind the Mapleshade stand is to maintain tonal balance by not distancing the speaker from a critical room boundary, the floor.

I own a pair of Meridian M2 active speakers with dedicated stands. These stands also position the speaker close to the floor, approximately 12", with a tilt mechanism to aim the speaker at the listening position. With this set up the user must use a laser pointer to insure the speakers have the same amount of tilt.

This gives you the best of both worlds. Definitely worth trying with your speakers.
