The Leicester HiFi LH1 Custom Built QS 104 Speaker Stand Range are a quadrifid design available with a steel open frame design with standard acoustic top plinth dimension of 190mm x 165mm and with a service for custom built dimensions to your specification.
The QS 104 design includes, as standard the Custom Design unique 4mm Acoustic steel top plinth, the IDG (interface dampening gasket) and a 4mm laser precision cut base plate, M8 Black Zinc Plated plated easy access allen key adjustable base isolation spikes and when combined with the zinc plated M6 fixing provides a total rigid open frame speaker stand support, designed to the minimal effect upon the performance of the speaker characteristics.
The hand finished acoustic steel top plinths connect to ERW BS EN 10305-3 steel 25.4 x 25.4mm tube with IDG as standard for sound quality and as part of the Custom Design attention to detail philosophy.
Custom Design manufacture the world renowned Inert Acoustic Steel and Acoustic Aluminium products for total isolation. The QS 104 Speaker Support Stand Range are manufacture and hand finished by the craftsman at Custom Design.
Combining the ERW BS EN 10305-3 welded steel support columns with 4mm Inert Acoustic Steel top plinths and 4mm steel base plates, Custom Design have created a discrete, rigid speaker support stand with minimal initial Mass. Mass loading points are provide below the acoustic steel plinths, and suggest mass loading the welded steel support columns with Inert Filler with 100g per column, then test the performance of the speaker, if the bass frequency requires more control then add another 100g per column. The Inert Filler adds to the initial mass of the speaker stand, maximising the performance of your LS3/5a QS 104 Speaker support Stands. We only recommend Inert Filler with all of the Custom Design Speaker Stand ranges.
The updated, modern, contemporary LS3/5a QS 104 speaker stands have aesthetic appeal. The Inert Acoustic Steel Isolation Top plinths, interface dampening gaskets and isolation pads reduce resonance noise vibration, resulting in an improved performance and sound quality. Please visit our Acoustic Steel page to view the graph demonstrating which frequencies of resonance vibration noise are absorbed by each process and the combination of Acoustic Steel top and base plates with our specially selected Inert Filler material.
Custom Design do not use Aluminium in the construction of any speaker stand designs. The natural properties of aluminium prevent speaker stands from performing to the best of their ability as mechanical feedback can be prevented, just like over mass loading. Which will result in reducing the dynamic range and the depth of bass frequency.
