[QUOTE="Douglas R. Allen, post: 125880, member: 71"] Re: Heavy speakers, to fly or use a tripod? You could pick up another set of speakers and fly them. Here is some Yorkville EF500p speakers on stands. They come in at 89lbs each. I had a cert. welder make the tops. It is 1 inch thick,solid crank shaft. I had them bent for the proper coverage angle needed. I pulled the stands to 20 degrees off center and they came back with no problems. I also doubled the weight for a test with different angles. With the wide base the global stands have and the weight all pushing down on the center it is VERY hard to get them to move at all. I would not put them up 13 feet but in this picture the bottom of the speaker is about 6 1/2 feet. I've been using this setup for around 9 years with no problems. Douglas R. Allen [/QUOTE]
