[QUOTE="George Friedman-Jimenez, post: 100019, member: 1115"] Re: Round based or small footprint speaker stands Safety is an issue, that application of a round based stand makes me nervous. The smaller footprint is inherently much less resistant to tipping. The base only extends less than 9 inches out on each side of the axis of the pole so counterweighting the base will only reduce the instability a little bit. The taller and heavier the stand is with the speaker, the more unstable and dangerous the setup can be. It might be fine if no one can get near enough to the speaker to nudge it and cause it to fall and you are indoors with no wind. But if you have that kind of room, you can probably fit a proper tripod with wide base support. [/QUOTE]
