What to use to tilt a centre speaker upwards?

[admin_exported]

Hey guys,

I'm using Monitor Audio Bronze series speakers for a surround setup. As my 32" Panny LCD is on top of a shelving unit the only space I can fit my centre is on the shelf below.
Recently I was told it helps to angle the centre speaker upwards to align all front tweeters with the listening position. A hell of a lot of websites claim this a great idea although none describe what to use to get the job done!

The monitor BR centre i'm using weighs about 6KG. Does anyone sell an adjustable platform that can be used on shelved to angle speakers upwards?

For now i'm using shaved rubber door-stop wedges.

They're what I'd use...

Looks awful though. I can't imagine it does the sound any good either.

Does anyone sell adjustable height feet?

What about putting these (or similar) underneath the front end of the speaker? You don't need to spend that much - you will find an alternative on ebay.

hmmm, they're not bad, although the reason i'm using wedges is that the shape means better contact. i guess i'd have to cut those rubber feet at an angle, so cheap ones would be preferrable

Just use two at the front and none at the back - you could also look at the http://www.brightstaraudio.com/isonode.htm - they are sent from the USA and you can pay using paypal - have ordered a few and they arrive in less than two weeks
