Hi, I have a pair of ACI Sapphire XLs. I haven't had my system up for several years, planning to use them for dual HT/music use and locate them just left/right of the tv/tv stand.

I am trying to decide between Sound Anchor 3 post stands or a pair of Rythmik F8, so I think I am win/win already, but I would be happy for you guys to provide input! I bought a used ACI Titan XL a while back to use for subwoofer duties, I would use it in the corner if I go with speaker stands or maybe even with the Rythmiks. The system is located main floor, big open space, maybe 18k ft3.

Also, thoughts about how to mount monitors on top of subwoofers? I was thinking isoacoustics monitor risers at first, but I am doubtful that is the kid/wife friendly way to go.

Would iso stands under the subs work better?

I say use the Titan and F8s together.

While it's tempting to use subs as speaker stands, the ideal sonic location for subs and mains (Sapphires) rarely coincide.

As the mains would probably sit a bit low on top of the subs, if you go that route, a tilt back would be helpful.
