Know before you buy
Yes, these are the dedicated stands designed specifically for the Confidence C1 series. They provide the correct height and structural stability required to optimize the speaker's performance.
The Confidence C1 II performs best in small to medium-sized listening rooms. Their compact footprint makes them ideal for spaces where floor-standing speakers might overwhelm the acoustics.
Because the original boxes are missing, you should bring protective blankets or specialized moving pads to secure the speakers and stands during transport. Ensure your vehicle has enough clearance to keep the speakers upright and stable.
These speakers are known for a highly transparent, neutral sound with exceptional imaging. They offer a refined high-frequency response thanks to the Esotar2 tweeter, making them a favorite for listeners who prioritize detail and accuracy.
An 8 out of 10 rating indicates that the speakers have been well-maintained and show only minor signs of use. They are fully functional and aesthetically clean, though they may show light cosmetic wear consistent with their age.
