Also, the neck-strain caused by having my LCDs so high was a bit much.. so now I have my Pulse, TX802, and ATC-1 on the right side of an LCD, on the top shelf, with the 2nd LCD on the bottom desktop towards the edge... I'll post a pic eventually but I know there was someone asking about neck-strain. The answer is that it did cause neck strain but *only* when the LCDs were mounted on-top of the ATC-1 and TX802.. when they're on top of the wooden shelf, there's no problem.

The Andy is definitely not going anywhere, the only gear that I may sell is the Waldorf Q and Pulse... but that's *very* preliminary. Most likely they won't, but a Virus C in place of the Q and Pulse is a little tempting.... just a little.

Wow, you are one fickle dude! Just last week, weren't you raving about the Pulse and bashing the Virus?!

I think you should donate the Q to me.

Blah blah. The Pulse and Q are both quite nice, I'm just not 100% sold on them yet. I'm really loving my ATC-1... it's the most "analog" instrument I've yet come across (including the Voyager). That may (perhaps) prove the Pulse to be useless. We'll see, though.

The lore of the C is mostly that I *really* do want to like the Virus, I really really do. So I'm hoping that maybe the C will be more to my tastes since it has no "Total Integration" which will make it feel more like an instrument (maybe).

May I recommend the Argosy stands, either the Classic or the X-Stands. Very stable. I have a pair of the X-Stands that were the same amount. X-Stands are great for landscape oriented monitors such as the Focal Twins.

Hey Alanzo, thanks for the update on screen height and neck strain.
I decided against buying a desk like yours - I use my computer for work and OHS says the top of the screens should be at eye level. I will have to rack my gear to the side.

lol I clearly shouldn't have skimmed half the posts

Expensive stands...damn

The way I looked at it was: If I'm spending $3,000 on monitors, I can afford to buy $250 stands.
