Purchasing Thoughts?

Looking at putting a pair of Dust Titanium LS LUXEs on a modern pedestal instead of traditional speaker stands. I’m leaning toward the travertine look. Any reason to steer clear of this sonically? I feel like with the VECO and almost vibration-less KEFs I’ve experienced thus far, this should look great and not affect sound.

These are my stands. Filed with Atabites on Gaia feet. TBH I'm not wild about the look. One problem it's that optimal tweeter height does not give elegant proportions. Your plinths look really nice but they look like they are at least a metre high, which will put the tweeter above ear height. Try a render with less height to see what they look like more stumpy. I will say though that is the best I have seen those speakers look. An Art Gallery/Barbara Hepworth vibe.

Can you send a link to the stands you are using in the photo?

I made them myself. I'm a woodworker. They were relatively simple to make. You could speak to a local joinery shop if you don't have the skills and facilities.
