Best Speaker Stands For B&W 686 Surround Speakers?

[admin_exported]

I have just moved flats and now need to get some stands for my back surround speakers - I have the B&W 685 theatre package.

I have my front 685 speakers on Atacama Nexus 6 stands, but not sure what to get for the back 686’s? Do I need something taller than the Nexus 6?

Thanks

Soundstyle Zii's or Partington Super Dreadnoughts (which I use for the 686's) would be fine.

I was thinking of getting some Atacama ones as my front stands and my hifi stand is Atacama. I'm not sure which ones to go for though. What height would I need for the back speakers?

I think the rule to use is normally what is your ear height when you are in your normal listening position?

60cm seems to be quite a popular height but that height meant my rear speakers didn't even clear the arm of my sofas, so I needed taller ones. So, as you see, it depends on your sitting position.

Atacama Nexus 10 - 100cm tall - would be a good choice
