Speaker Stand Suggestions
Need some help identifying a good pair of speaker stands for my brother. He has a new pair of B&W 805D3's that are sitting on cabinets right now, but he wants to migrate them to stands. He looked at the B&W stands, but at about $600 each he's not quite so knocked out about the price.
Can anyone recommend a good stand at a more reasonable price point that would safely hold the 805D3's? Hit me up guys!

With such High end speakers I would just save a bit more and get the stands that were designed for the speakers. For both sonic and aesthetics attributes I might add. Maybe you can find a used pair to offset the cost. You need to be patient for one to show up. Other than that, you can get the B&W STAV20 or 24 for significantly less, but not as visually appealing compared to the one for the 800 series.

“in for a penny, in for a pound”.
I would agree to save for proper stands. It’s the price of buying such capable stand mounted speakers.

Just for something to hold him over and get them off the cabinets until he can save up for the B&W stands look at the ones from Pangea on AA and the Monolith stands at Monoprice. Both solid and well made for a low cost.
