Where to get longer spikes for 805s

[Tony1]

I want to raise the 805's on sound anchor stands a few inches. Anyone know where I can get taller spikes?

A few inchES???
Those most I've seen spikes extend to is about an inch to an inch and a half. How much taller are you trying to get?
I know they sell various sized spikes here in Japan, but any "audiophile" product is going to have a price. i.e., probably more than $150

NICE! It's cheap too! I should post some links to websites here in Japan. They make a killing out of tweaks like this. lol

I was looking to raise them up 3 -4"'s. Have a new sofa that is high so I want to raise the speakers to ear level that's why I was thinking about taller spikes. I tried searching the net but didn't have any luck so that's I why I posted here. The other alternative would get a 2 x 4 and make blocks to raise them but that wouldn't look too good.

Sound Anchor also makes stands for the 805. You can order them in many different heights. Obviously a more expensive option, but an option non the less.

I was thinking something similar. Also, as you already have nice stands, maybe Sound Anchor could make a pair of base extenders for you. Raise it up the desired height.



Hope this helps.
