so i'm asking this question on the wrong website, i guess; but i'm sure some of you folks use speakers. the question is: do i need to buy speaker stands for my axiom m3ti speakers? or can i simply build them myself wit a two by four and a couple pieces of plywood? if i can build myself, is there a reccommended height for said bookshelf speakers? i will be lying or sitting on the couch mostly, about six feet away

Walmart sells them for dirt cheap in case you were turned off by high prices elsewhere . They're of similar quality etc too.

I think 31" is a pretty good height. I haven't seen the speakers in question but I believe the recommendation is that the top of the woofer should be at eye level. If you google for it there should be plenty of DIY info on building your own. Other than that, you can buy some at Guitar Center for a pretty good price if you haggle. I got some okay stands at Circuit City a while back for like $60 per pair. My only complaints about them is that they didn't come with carpet spikes.

The listening position should be level between your ears and just below the tweeter for a 2-way monitor. Thats what works best for me and many others I talked to.
