Makes sense.
I have to agree with point #5. Good work Tyll. I knew I had to have them when I first saw them. There just aren't any other solutions that are even half as slick. And I didn't want wall cubes on my desk.
I always had the sneaking feeling there were going to be expensive and half expected they would be very pricey. When I saw the final price, the price comfortably exceeded any leeway in my budget that could have accomodated them, so there goes that dream. Right now my Dynaudios are resting on their stock stands with a few books underneath, so I guess that's the way it has to be unless av123 can come up with something
