Help finding desktop speaker stands

I've been looking for an 8" desktop stand for a new pair of monitors. The Atacama SL200 seems perfect, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere outside the UK. I'm surprised that this category seems not to exist. There's the junky wood technology stuff, and then.. nothing. Any suggestions?

you actually need the 8" height? I was thinking about getting stands too but i ended up getting auralex mo pads which not only isolate but they act as stand and angles it directly to my ears. Its a great product but not sure if it fits your needs.

Yep. These monitors will be maybe 11" tall at the most, and in order to get the tweeter at ear level, they need to be several inches off the desk. I used the Mo Pads under my old 8" Dynaudio monitors. They were ok, but not tall enough for this application. It seems like I may have to go with Sound Anchors, as I just don't see any other options.

That's ok, thanks for the offer though. I think I may end up just making a platform myself, with the Ultimate MS-80 as the top plate for it.
