Since Polk has not gotten back to me in time for my weekend construction I really need your help. Can someone please take measurements on the bottom/base dimensions of their Fxi5's so I can build speaker stands to fit their odd shape? I need the every measurement inclucing the little length in the front. So to give you a clear I dea of what I need I need the meausrements of the bottom of the speaker soI can cut and match a peice of wood to make a stand for the speaker.

If you can take the time to do this I would greatly appreciate it.

    Sorry, man, don't know the dimensions. But why not wall mount them? That's what they're primarily designed for, and where they will sound the best.
    Current System:

    Mitsubishi 30" LCD LT-3020 (for sale**)
    Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Concert Grand (Rosewood)-Mains (with Audioquest Mont Blanc cables)
    CSi5-Center (for sale**)
    FXi3-surrounds (for sale**)
    Martin Logan Depth-Sub
    B&K AVR 507
    Pimare CD21-CD Player
    Denon 1815-DVD Player
    Panamax M5500-EX-Line Conditioner

    11 3/4 inches wide, about 8 in deep. Flat side in front is 2 1/2 inches. The back side corners come up about 2 inches before they angle towards the front to make the triangular shape.

    Thanks. Let the construction begin. Just as a not for people. I bought all the wood, stain and screws at home depot and it only came to 36$. May be a nice alternative to $100 speaker stands. I am staining them "onyx". try to let you know how it comes out.
