I need advice on a reference monitor stand.
I got this Yamaha MS101 30Watt monitor, that is a dynamite amplifier for my acoustics. And I'd like to put it up on a stand. Maybe something waist high. Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks

Get a folding keyboard stand.

Is it "pole-mountable"??(ShutUp,Witko!!).
A small pole-type speaker stand could work . . .

You could also check out some of the smaller amp stands...like for Fender twins, etc.

It's a pole mountable model. I guess its dimensions are 6 wide by 6 inches deep by 8 inches tall. Weighs about 5 lbs. Speaker is about 4 inches wide. Has inputs for a mic and a guitar.

I think the small pole type speaker stand is what I'm looking for. I'm always looking for portable stuff.

GC has 'em on sale all the time.
The pole also allows you to "swivel" it around at will . . .

It's Will I feel sorry for.

Poor fella - "Swivel around it at will". "Fire at Will", etc etc.

I have to confess that I have very little to add this discussion other than that, so I'll try and be sensible for a bit...

Something like this maybe?

Clearly, this is from the UK, but eBay should turn something up...
