I just checked the drawers on the storage boxes and they still work properly so I could still use the drawers on them if I wished to.

Any suggestions, whether real stands or some sort of desk organization improv set would be great.
Thanks!
I don't have the A5s, but AVi's ADM 9.1s. They are elevated off of my desk by a single-thickness platform of two common bricks, and tilted back on two large rubber doorstops.

Very high-tech. Very effective. The elevation and tilt stopped reflections off of the desk top that were totally buggering the imaging. They sound absolutley wonderful, and all of the materials were found in my tool shed.

This British company has just started selling these, which look perfect for A2 or A5s: Desktop Speaker Stands

Those empty plastic boxes must resonate a lot.

Not as much as you'd think. I thought that they would at first, but I was surprised. I did however make myself some pads for underneath them from materials I found at work.

Reviving an old thread,

 

I just got these and things are sounding a little boomy, problem is they are sitting over a glass/wood surface  which I guess gives that off..   Would vibration pads under them help? Or should I just get them off the desk?
