What stand will work for these speakers? The shape is different than most speakers.


Onkyo TX-NR709 A/V Receiver
Polk RTi8's Front
In-Walls for Rears
CSi5 Center
SVS 20-39PCI Subwoofer

    Seems to me the best option is to wall mount them... Ideally they should be about 6' or more high and youll have a hard time finding a stand like, even then it would look silly.

    Where I will be using them is a rented house and there is not wall where I want them to be at.
    If they are not stand mountable I may get something else (RTi6) instead.

    Has anyone put these speakers on a speaker stand???

    Ideally this speaker needs to be mounted about 3' above the listener's ear level. You're looking are about 6' off the ground in most cases. I don't know of any speaker stands this tall. Check out the DIY section of the forum. There's probably a post or two about building your own, if your so inclined.

    I'd wall them mount irregardless.

    OK which wall mounts works the best with the FXi3? Will have to redo some wiring.

    The Fxi3 has a mounting bracket/plate on the back of the speaker. All you'll need is a screw if you can find a stud or a hollow wall anchor if not.
