Well most folks here know that Magic Stands are a JMR product. Reynaud stopped building them years ago because he couldn't make a profit on them, and sent me the plans at my request. I have them built by a local cabinet maker here, I don't make a profit on them either, but I do it because there appears to be a continuing demand for them and they do work well with Reynauds. If I were a serious business, as JMR is, I couldn't/wouldn't do it. But as you'd be the first to say, I'm not serious.
"Objective" in this context means I described the differences I heard among three kinds of stands without prejudice. I actually contacted Noel a few years back in the hope that his stands would sound better with Reynauds than Magic Stands, so I could get out of making them. I did a comparison here at my house, took them to a show and let others hear the comparison there. As I say, some folks preferred the Skylans, some the MS, for the reasons I reported. And because I prefer the MS's, I am still stuck with making them. At one time, I had a note on my website mentioning that Skylans worked well with Reynauds for folks who wanted a punchy bass. Maybe I should put it back, forgot it wasn't still there. I also mention Symposium Sveltes there, which I don't sell, and Mapleshade Samson racks. As I say, I'm not a serious business.
