ProAc Speaker Stands?

[admin_exported]

Hi folks,

I'd appreciate any advice/recommendations. I've recently moved into a new house and can finally get some speaker stands for my ProAc Tablette Reference 8 speakers.

Does anyone have any ideas what to go for? What Hifi says the Soundstyle Z2 stands are excellent, but more so for speakers around £400. I like the idea of Atacama stuff as well. Has anyone tried the Aurora 6 glass stands? Are they not a gimmick? Or what about the Nexus ones?

A local Atacama dealer says the company's going to bring out a new set of stands called HMS. Has anyone heard anything about them also?

The problem is that it would be a LOT better if they looked good as well. I don't think my wife would like somethig along the lines of the Dreadnoughts!

Thanks,

jb

I've been using the Atacama Nexus 6 in Silver with ProAc Tablette 2000 speakers and they work really well, the stands have tarnished over the years, maybe a design fault or through the sand filling the tubes.
