So I have a few queries and am hoping to get some advice.
I have recently purchased some Mission 751 speakers and am currently hunting for some stands. Having been used to floorstanders for some time, this is a bit new to me.
From my very rough trial placing the 751s on my floorstanders, and in addition to what I have read, the 751s are best heard with ear'oles level or slightly above the cabinet rather than in line with the tweeter. They're 32cm tall and I was thinking of the Atacama SE24 (24"- 61cm) or Moseco 6 bringing the top to 93cm. My seated ear height is roughly 90cm.
My questions
Should I therefore hunt for slightly shorter stands, maybe the SE20, or will 60cm stands be okay and suitable with potential sofa changes? I also see lots of praise for the SE range, any other good used (fillable) stands that are worth the ticket that should consider at an affordable used price?
On a slightly different note, I will be running them with an Audiolab 8000a though I am also hunting out an Arcam A32. Does anyone have any suggestions on other amps said to go well with these and if I wanted to add a subwoofer down the line, what are good options?
Thanks 👍
