Sounds small at first until you remember that it both allows for bolting the speaker down and also is coated with the Bumpon material which will provide more traction for larger speakers at angles.

The Harbeth's, for reference, are 12" x 7.5" (roughly) and I'm sure they'll sit comfortably on the stands.
Thanks. My main concern was in making sure they will fit on my desk. The current speakers are Audioengine A5's that really aren't that large.

BTW those Harbeths are really nice looking, I really want to hear a pair.
