Good Questions: Speaker Stands?

2007_08_27 ikea stands.jpg

Dear AT Home Tech,

I am looking for a pair of speaker stands for under $100.00. They are to be used for the rear speakers of the energy sound system (sorry forgot the model).

I'd like a model that is sturdy, silver, 40" tall. Any recommendation?

Dear Charles,

Although I can no longer seem to find them on their website, we have used speaker stands from Ikea before that have served us well. There were two different models, one with a concrete base and one that was brushed stainless steel. The nice thing about both of these stands was the hollow column that provided a place to run and hide the speaker wire. The best thing was the price, even brand new they were affordable but they seem to be available second hand for between $10 to $15.

Any other suggestions?

I thought about getting a pair of these but I opted to mount my Energy Takes on the walls.
