friends told me
 
Construction
I put my JBL XE/2 speakers on cement blocks, raising them to the proper level. this is superior to any speaker stand since it does NOTHING. no damping and no coupling - no coloration added.
 
Setup
just put heavy cement blocks on the top of each other to the proper level.
 
Use
put your bookshelf speaker on it.
 
Performance
It kept my system affordable and sounded noticeably better than using low-cost stands that cost about 10 times my tweak.
 
Other
it looks very odd

Callum Try using sculptured concrete/marble/whatever stands from a garden store. Even more inert and should look a bit better than stacked blocks.
