    I have a pair of Polk Audio TSi300 speakers that I would like to raise about a foot off the floor to get them ear level. They are 36.5 inches high. I'm willing to spend up to $100.00 for good stands.

    Any recommendations?

    Can you adjust these so they are firing in an upward angled direction at your ears?

    I haven't tried that yet but I guess I can put something under the front. I don't know what to use. Any ideas?

    Some speakers have adjustable feet. My previous floorstanders sat on a base, and you would adjust to control how far back they were pitched.

    These feet are stationary.

    Thanks. I checked them out, but over $200.00 is more than I want to spend.

    Nah man; get a lower couch. These are floorstanders; you'll feck up the sound. My towers are just 2 inches taller; I'm 6' 2ยจ and they're perfectly level with my ears.

    Just get some blocks and stack them as high as you need and spray paint them if you need them to be a certain color.

    I just got 2 cutting blocks with feet. I'm trying them now. If I like them, I'll spray paint them glossy black to match the speakers
