Greetings!

What kinda solutions have you used when you needed to get midtops higher than they are?

When I stack my subs and put the tops on em they are a bit too low blasting straight to face. Would be nice to get them a bit higher.

Should I just make a "box" or what...

Thanks!

I've seen where people have made tall tilt boards. not sure how they lock the midtops onto the boards though.
You can't polish a turd!

I dont want poles.

Building a box would take some space so need to find a solution which would not take a lot of space but would do the job.

Maybe a "box" without sides...That would be kinda wobbly thou I think...

Like this ] if you rotate that anticlock wise...

One option would be to make/find a box for the wires etc and use that as the height adding box.

This is not a common problem if your system is 3way but 2way is a different thing.

What options is there than poles or a box of somekind?

Of course it should look nice too...

Basically sounds like poles are exactly what you need, add height take up no room, don't look terrible and don't have to worry about ratcheting the tops to the subs.

can just build a box to put under it if you want, maybe make it an ideal size to fit your top inside it for protection when its being moved?

or yeah, more subs
