Ping QUAD FRED/63 owners, help with DIY stand height / height of centre?

Planar Speaker Asylum

Welcome! Need support, you got it. Or share your ideas and experiences.

Once I know that we can measure my listening ear height on the sofa, and I can calculate the stand height.

Near-field listening.

I note that the Celestion system 6000 subs, used by Polygram / Philips with FREDs for recording, had a direct connection.

IF I find that my two DIY sealed subs (boxes built) can 'match' the needed height is there any reason NOT to use them? Add an isolation layer? A bicycle inner-tube sandwiched between some laminated MDF plates?

TIA
