I have some 16 inch speaker stands that I am going to make taller.
The back speakers are 16 inchs tall. How high would you put the fronts?
24-31inches??? They are going on the side of a 46 inch projection tv.

i like 24" myself. For example I know Polk recommends the 30" stands for rti4's but that doesn't make any sense. When I sit, the tweeter of the polk is ear-level, which is what you want to accomplish.

Well thank you the back speakers are going to hard to get ear level he are sitting on a end tables.

Remember how the surround speakers are placed in a movie theater and place your surrounds in the same manner.Movie soundtracks are designed for that type of placement.TRUST me it will sound better.

Also the tweeters for the front speakers should be at approximate seated ear level in order to get the best sound from them.

Just curious... why the hurry?

Hi there,

Thinks my sub amp/driver is faulty, give out a "pop pop...." sound whenever there is heavy bass. Did call the local service center, but the charges was like USD140. So now I' thinking iit's worth servicng or just get a new one? Hope someone can give some advice or help me in troubleshooting or repair it myself. Thanks for listening.

Good Day !

You don't want the rears right at ear level. this applies to the fronts only.
