So, my work from home / personal office desk speakers have been sitting on books:
I'd been looking at the $167 Soundrise stands: https://soundrisepro.com/ as a possible replacement. Nice!, i love the look but I'm not spending that much for stands.
When my Son couldn't find the sweater similar to an old favorite that I have, he asked what else I wanted for Christmas. I suggested some desk stands that looked just as good as the Soundrise produces for considerably less money.
The AUDIORAX Aluminum desktop speaker stands on sale for $60!
These guys are based in Idaho and design and manufacture technical studio racks for the Audio Recording and Broadcast Industries.

That looks awesome! What speakers are those? I have been thinking to get better quality speakers for a while for my desktop rig as well.

Thanks! I recently started a full-time work from home job and I'm stoked about my setup. It helps my work day go by, and makes my personal time better. These are rare Boston Acoustics VS 240 speakers. They date back to Boston's transition period right before they were aquired. They didn't sell a lot of them and the remaining got liquidated. Great speakers, they used drivers from SB Acoustics, that are used in big name speakers, and in abundance by the DIY community. Very revealing and not fatiguing.
