speakers stands @ 2400

[ShaQ.Blogs]

I just got a pair of speaker stands. It mostly looks like this. It cost me just 2400. It was just what I was looking for.
Instead of a cylindrical rod connecting bottom to top, it has a square rod.

I was hoping not to spend anything more than 4K for stands. 4K was itself high. I was looking for one around 2K-3K. Fortunately i found.

Minor changes I might need to do is, maybe fill the rod with sand. (Not Decided)
Change the bottom supports to something that looks good - Spikes or so.

Same here.....

Even i would go for them if the available one are 90% same.

However, as per OP "Instead of a cylindrical rod connecting bottom to top, it has a square rod."

The stands in first post and pics look very much like Magma's! i own a pair. I don't think good stands can be that cheap.

The link in the first post is Sound Foundations - SAL Alif-S/R Speaker Stand

Which are heavy duty high quality stands that weigh around 15 kg's. It's why we're asking for more details.

 

[jaudere]

Exactly. The iron itself will cost around 500 (just by weight) and transport around 1k. Designing, laser cutting , sand blasting (or whatever that treatment is called that does not allow iron to rust), labour, spikes, dealer profit etc is all extra. So 2400 is too good to be real unless the OP is getting them used. Tono speaker stands are available but are much ligheter than Sal Alif and still cost 5k apprx.

In one of the snaps it looks like the stands are badly scratched. Its the effect of the reflective paint and light. The scratch is not visibl unless it is observed at very close distance.

A little sand in the hollow stand to make it a little heavier, and good spikes is what it lacks

that's intresting....going to one of the more customer unfriendly places (SP Road) and asking them if they would ship

not sure if its a good idea asking these guys t ship...i could be wrong
maybe someone else could chip in
