Since we were just talking about this, here is a picture of one of my new stands with a BLS on it. The cherry matches quite well - my wife said that they looked like they'd been made to go together.

Looks sweet! Do I see a fund for the 997 in the background?

Heh... I hope not, or it will be a long time before I get to upgrade.

Haha...btw, the speakers arrived on Friday. Initial tests look promising, but I had to leave for a trip to visit the family for Thanksgiving, followed by a week in Dallas for work.

I'm going to let my girlfriend break them in a little, and wait to really get them setup and tested out when I get back.

Hi Gonk:

Speaker w/stand look great.

How did you safely mount the BLS speakers on the StudioTech Ultras US 30" speaker stands? Did you use gravity, velcro strips or ?. I am in process of buying these Ultra stands to use with my BLS speakers and any info would be appreciated.

They are on there with gravity and some rubber pads on top of the stand.
