Quote: I recently visited a high end shop I hadn't been to in a while, and couldn't help but to notice that the proprietor had positioned metal poles horizontally from the tops of his demo Magnepan speakers to the rear wall (the poles were each about six feet in length). He explained that this was to eliminate the inherent sway of the speakers on their stock stands, and results in an improvement in the bass. Well, the setup sounded mighty fine to me, but there was no option to A/B with and without these "supports", so I left with the decision that I just had to try this little trick at home.
If after market stands are mostly about improving the bass, does this mean those of us who cut our Maggies off at 90Hz and use subwoofers can ignore after market stands?
