Atacama Standing The Test of Time
Fri, May 15 2009, 5:24PM
This may sound a dumb question, and there is certainly an argument for "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". However...
...I have a pair of Atacama SE24 stands purchased something like 12 years or more ago, which until recently supported my Mission 760i speakers. If I am considering the purchase of new and more expensive speakers (approx £400), should I consider an upgrade of the stands too? These stands were highly regarded at their price point when I purchased them, but have things moved on? Would purchasing another model be sensible?
The current stands are filled with dry silver stand (in large plastic bags, which seemed a good idea at the time).
I welcome your opinions.
Just make sure the spikes and screws are all nice and tight, make sure they're level and they should survive your speakers upgrade no problem.
