Hi all. I'm new to the vintage monitors. Are there stands that they came with, or that were made for the Monitor 7c's that I should buy? If so, if you have a set, let me know. If not, is there some model or brand that would work best.

Thanks,

James

    Yes there are and hard to come by seperate but they do pop up. Do a search, there are specs if you care to build. Jstas father will also build you a custom pair all to orig specs.


    Good Luck

    There's your needle in the haystack.

    Original Monitor stands are very hard to come by. A while back I managed to track down an original pair for my 7A's. They made a very appreciable difference in sound. The low end tightened up a lot, the highs smoothed out noticeable, the whole soundstage raised up and became a lot more coherent.

    Eventually I'm going to upgrade my 7's, and I'm planning on making a beefier pair of stands for them. I'm gonna build them to the original dimensions, but much sturdier. I'm probably going to fill the centers of them with lead shot, and spike them as well.
