Default Check out these Speakers and...their stands
The Q Acoustics Concept 300

Introductory video by John Darko here:

In particular, watch the part about the stands for these speakers.

Very interesting. Welcome the gang's thoughts on this unorthodox speaker and stand design.

Very interesting two way speaker with a lot of attention to vibration isolation. Having gel filled layers in the enclosure plus the isolation footer on the bottom of the speaker where the stands attach is something unique I haven't seen before.

True, but I found it very interesting from the perspective of maximizing a transfer function by attenuation of noise factors using such an interesting design embodiment for the stands.
