The speaker produces sound that is real, sounds like reality, if you know what I mean. Listening at very low volumes, I can feel the dynamics , in a sense that does not involve the ears. I can feel all the dynamic material, not by just hearing it, but feeling it on my body, at low volumes and very clearly.
For stands, I use cylindrical basstraps by HOFA-Akustik and I'm not planning to change. They do a great job and at the exact right height.
You ought to try those basstraps for stands.
A good speaker, is a heavy speaker that does not move when it moves. Get that.
