on the audiostream site, I noticed the stacked plywood stands that editor Michael Lavorgna has on his desktop, they looked usefully solid & short & attractive. I made something similar, using 4 layers of cork flooring (each of the layers is a sandwich of cork, some type of compressed wood, and cork). They are sized to fit exactly under my desktop speakers, and work well and bring the sound image up. I used 25 cent samples of the flooring - so total materials cost = $2.
I would suggest one of the integrated amplifiers frpm Arcam, Musical Fidelity, or Creek. They make excellent amplifiers that would be appropriate for those speakers.
I have a Musical Fidelity M3i that is like new that i am going to sell (selling one house and have extra gear).
New price was $1500, and i will let it go for $900.
