Going by the picture; talk to your friends and find someone that can weld; These look like a simple fabrication project.
A bit of scrapyard shopping a quick search of Amazon (for the adjustable feet)and some satin epoxy paint...

... simple stuff.
Agreed. not complex construction and the steel isn't super expensive, but getting them to a similar finish + hardware would be close to the same price. I know finishing shops around here. My dad is a welder actually; he has gas and wire in his garage and he likes projects. Maybe if I need another pair, I'll ask him next time. I wanted these in a few days lol, we wouldn't have been able to do these in a few days.

Kanto SX's? I have those, very sturdy/steel plate structure.
Yes.

With a high enough WAF this answers the age old audiophile question:
How many speakers are enough? "Just two more" :) KEF LS60s. Small, but surprisingly heavy!

Finished setting up my 7.1.6 surround sound system with a few additions for the new year. The Dolby atmos enabled topper speakers weren’t doing much so switched them out for SVS ultra Evolution Elevations for front top heights. They made a big difference in sound. SVS Ultra Evolution center channel a 3-way which is a better system match and finally a Marantz Cinema 30 AVR. I’ve wanted a Marantz since I was a kid. Sounds awesome streaming atmos mixes and playing immersive mix Blurays.

My old Node 2 in the great room system is usually listed for $300 average used and this Node which is two or three model years younger goes for around $400 on average used. At $250, I would have been insane not to pounce on it.

This unit replaces the Iomega with a 2TByte drive. I've got about 75% of the 2TB space filled up and accessing music on any of the large folders in excess of 450Gigs such as the Rock folder, causes it to reboot. I split the Rock folder into two which stabilizes the behaviour but updating music on it would become a royal PITA.

The Node in the basement connects to the Node2's USB attached library, (Western Digital 3TB) in the greatroom via the network. That would be the white box sitting on top of the center channel. The USB drive sits behind the center channel.
