For years people have been telling me get some stands for the 1.7s.
I don't have a whole lot of ceiling room and the system sounded fine so I didn't worry about it.
The MagnaRisers worked so well on the LRS/LRS+ and 3.7s I finally broke down and ordered some.
I should have done it a long time ago!
To look at them you wouldn't think they could possibly do very much but they certainly do.
The presentation just seems more solid which I know is a poor description but that's pretty accurate.
There is more bass and certain things that were previously buried in the mix just become more prominent.
I put on Thrax by King Crimson and one guitar line really just jumped out at me which it didn't before. They had a few other guitar tracks on whatever song that was which also became a lot more noticeable, before they were kind of lost in all the other stuff that was going on.
These will require a little more fooling around with placement but they slide really easiy on carpet which is a good thing.
I went with the Ascenion stands as they have the least amount of rise.
They took a while to show up but they were worth the wait. A good product which offered a very noticeable improvement to an already good sounding system.
