Speaker stands for cube 3s

I'm considering getting dedicated stands for the cubes. Currently they're sitting atop an armchair (open sided wooden framed 1970s Ercol) and a beanbag (with a pillow underneath the speaker for extra height) :evil: :shock: Side by side as I don't care about stereo imaging, and about 50 cm away from ...

Re: Where can the earth go ?

Re: Your last listen

The Taking of Pelham 123 soundtrack. I recently saw the film again and find the music blood pumpingly good. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=the+taking+of+pelham+123+1974+music&k1=-1&k7=292929&kae=d&kak=-1&kam=osm&kap=-1&kaq=-1&kax=-1&kn=1&kp=-2&iar=videos&ia...
