Desktop Speaker Stands (Primarily for MM1)

[DJRSP]

I got a corner desk and have my MM1's sitting on the table surface. I have been meaning to put them up at ear height and was considering two options.
 
1) wall mount each speaker 
 
2) find a desktop stand to elevate each speaker to the right height.
 
In both cases, I need help.
 
For a wall mount, I have seen this picture though the product is not being sold anywhere,

Worst comes to worst some Ikea panels drilled into the wall.
But do you have any other suggestions?
 

 
 
For option 2, which desktop stands would be best for elevation
I have seen the isoacoustics which seem way to expensive and incompatible with a smaller set of speakers like mine

and I have also seen these Kanto Yu2 stands which only angle the speaker in a favorable directions.

From what I have provided, what do you suggest is the best option?
 
Thank you

My home made stand.
 
$6.00 chopping board from IKEA, cut into 2 bases and speaker spikes from Parts Express.

The stand is around 2.4 inches high.

Those do look great, I think I will need a bit more height than these spikes though.
 
With my table height, i'm looking to elevate my speakers about a foot at the base. Lowest i'm willing to go is 8".
 
Any other suggestions for a good stand particularly for the mm1s?

Either you DIY the stands or go to a store like IKEA, find something like a jewelry box that has the dimensions you need and mass load it (sand and ball bearings).
 
If you want to DIY but you have no power tools to deal with wood, and can't find the exact box measurements you need either, then you can check if any such boxes fit the dimensions you need (height and surface area that isn't smaller than the MM1) if put on its side. Mass load it and then glue the box cover, then put it on its side.
