SKYLAN - SPEAKER STANDS
Skylan speaker stands are MASS-LOADING. Strong, yet light, they are engineered with MDF and Polymer Extrusion. These stands are designed for the serious audiophile at reasonable prices.
Construction consists of a rigid central pillar which is filled with kitty litter, wooden barbeque pellets or rice for mass loading. The base is 1" thick, and features die-cast threaded inserts for adjustable steel points or soft feet. The top plate is also rigid and non-resonant and incorporates high friction neoprene de-coupling pads to improve the speaker/stand interface. Skylan damping boards, the result of eighteen years of evolution, are popular with audiophiles as supports for turntables, amps and all vibration-sensitive gear.
For the money, Skylan stands and damping boards are the ultimate audio tweak.
"...I will tell you that this is a product that just embodies the concept of “pride of ownership.” Noel Nolan clearly cares a lot about his products, and they fairly exude quality from top to bottom."
From a review by Steve Folberg.
