The speaker is the same size as the top platform and only 1' high. The
bottom platform is 1" wider than the top.

The center of gravity of the speaker must fall within the outline of the
top portion of the stand, so as not to fall off the stand. The center of
gravity of the entire assembly - speaker plus stand - must fall within the
outline of the bottom portion of the stand, so the stand does not topple
over. The farther away from the edge of an outline the CG is, the more
stable the stand.

In the picture, the top and bottom platforms are offset horizontally from
each other, this will make fulfilling both conditions more difficult... As
stated earlier, any curvature of the post does not matter.

The top and bottom platforms might be kind of small, but I don't know how
big the speakers are...

Hello everyone,

I started on my first bit of woodworking not related to home renovations
tonight for the first time in a real long time.

I lost the shelves that my small bookshelf speakers rested on and I
wanted something to hold them off the floor beside the TV.

I almost got them done tonight but I got stuck with the physical and
aesthetic center of gravity placement of the vertical post vs. the top
and bottom platforms.

The speakers are 20 year old Infinity RS1000's that I replaced the main
drivers in two years ago due to surround cracking from age.

I am at a loss at where the vertical post should meet the top and bottom
platform so they look good and don't topple.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

David.
