Hardwood frames will definitely improve the sound of your T-IVas - however, braced stands will provide a further improvement. :-))

Braced factory frames?

  That would be ideal! :-))
  
  But Magnepan don't make them - so you have 2 options:
  1. buy Mye stands.
  2. get some made up.

    I replaced the stock stands with the Sound Anchor on my 3.6R and sometimes wonder what would they sound like with the Mye stands. What sonic improvements do the Mye stands bring and how significant?

      A significant improvement!
      
      It's the fact the Mye stands are braced that cause them to provide an improvement.
      
      I understood Stand Anchors do not offer bracing?

        That's correct, no bracing on the Sound Anchor. Much more heavy duty design than the stock stands and come with spikes and tilt adjustment feature. I love the clean industrial design look, perhaps that's my weakness 😂

        over the stock T-feet ... but my view is that the key aspect of a good stand is bracing.

        The bracing design makes sense.
