Center channel placement/stand (?)

[Chris]

Has anyone run across anything (either on the market or diy) that can be used to help position/angle a center channel? Mine sits on top of an a/v cabinet which houses the tv, and it needs to be angled down just a few inches. Whatever I use will be very visible too, so I can't just stick a book under the back of the speaker or something. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Chris

How about a door stopper or you can make a simple wedge design.

My Definitive CLR2000 has a a handy threaded foot on the bottom of the speaker for angling it. Thats a nice feature in a center speaker.
With my new Dynaudio center I plan to do just what Eduardo recommended. Make a wedge.

Chris,

I'm using a Lovan Director adjustable center-channel stand which I picked up at a local Tweeter's for $49. I like it a lot - it's very solid, very well made out of cast metal. It adjusts the angle of the speaker via threaded rear feet as well as adjusts for the width of the speaker. It has helped the audio presentation a lot - primarily by de-coupling the speaker from the RPTV cabinet and also allowing me to overhang the front edge of the TV by almost an inch. Highly recommended.

I'm using rubber feet from Radio Shack, hehe. To change the angle, just push the feet in or out underheath. You don't actually fasten them to the speaker or the TV. These are the larger kind.

David's fix perhaps a bit more professional! I do like Lovan stuff.

I'm like David. Also, I stick three rubber squares on my stand to keep from scratching my NHT (piano black) spks. It looks real good.
