Santa I want Bryston Target HR50 Loudspeaker Stands for Christmas...Please
I'm in...
Good stands are a great upgrade. You can never have enough of these products, as they seem to be getting harder to find. Sanus once had a couple of hi-fi type series that have disappeared. I have gone "sandless," though, due to living constraints. I also worry about the warning labels of the sand that is on sale at major retailers. May the best person win.
They look like great stands!
Thanks for the opportunity!
excellent...I could use these. thansk
Please oh please, i have been a good boy this year...
Would be a great little "extra" Christmas present!
I would love to win a set of these!
Stand in the place where you live.
Just stand.

Yeah baby
Come on Santa! Be good this year!

I'll grab them right at Bryston! No shipping required!
Will be a great fit for a pair of Mini A speakers by Bryston.
I've consulted a number of specialists. The first strapped my speakers into the sort of traction machine used on James Bond in Thunderball. The machine was nicely restored, and all the relevant parts had been rechromed by the same firm that does the brightwork for Rolls Royce and Edwin Jagger. The leather parts were original and well cared for from the start--not a hint of cracking anywhere, just a deep brown-black patina. The machine impressed the heck out of me. So did the doctor. The machine had been his father's, and he'd been trained by the old man. Followed the old man's maintenance routine for the machine, too. But the treatment didn't do a thing for my speakers. Inexplicably, they ended the session with uncomfortably bright treble.
I won't go too far into the rest. I'm sure you can guess most of it--HGH supplements that were meant as suppositories and which I had to insert three times a day into the bass reflex ports (the speakers developed an annoying rattle); then a psychotherapist who practiced a since-banned form of conversion therapy to try to convince my speakers they were floorstanders; then a physical therapist who didn't do much during the sessions but gave me loads of mimeographed handouts that depicted exercises I was supposed to do with the speakers at home, though I could never understand the diagrams (they looked like topographic maps made by a cartographer who'd never been outside of an anechoic chamber). Finally, when I told all this to the produce manager at my local grocery store, he said, "Look at this kumquat. You think I spend my day trying to make it into a pomolo?"
Since then, I've had my speakers on the floor. I lie down on my belly to listen--prop my chin on my hands and chew wedge after wedge of citrus fruit. For some reason, I keep buying it by the crateful.
Giving this is a lead shot, no pun intended!
I'm in.
I need these!
Perfect for my KEF
…look nice. I hope I win.
I will settle for the Bryston Stand this Christmas instead of my two front teeth.

Nice little stands
Over the years I have used speaker stands beginning with all manner of homemade stands; some fair to good, some poor, to bargain basement stands to really good one's like these. The best ones are very sturdy and you can open the posts to insert lead shot and or sand inside for dampening. Quality stands such as these are not only aesthetically appealing but they make great foundations giving your bookshelves their best opportunity to perform optimally.

Merci beau...
I'm shopping for speakers and these would be perfect. I have my fingers crossed.
Thanks for the chance! Happy New Year!
