Alphason Speaker Stands

I know this is a long shot but does anyone recognise the model of the stands in this link?

If so, anyone know how long ago they were stopped being made? Alphason tell me they are now discontinued and non in stock.

I have 2 - whihc is nice for the fronts, but I need 2 for the back and can't find them anywhere. Have tried ebay and the classifieds TNA. B&W advertise their 600 speakers with similar stands, but I have had an email off them saying they no longer make this design either!!

This is strating to drive me mad, as I really like the design adn would like to keep everything looking the same.

This is really sad but they are an Alphason Akros II 60 (It is important that there isn't a "D" after the number) There are still a few pairs doing the rounds I think I know the where abouts of a 45cm version though!
They retailed at about £50-60 about 4 years ago, before that I think the model was released about two years before that!!

bobbypunk - thats grand. Typical of me to get stands that I can't get hold of anymore!!

B&W are trying to locate some silver versions of they're official ones, however they still want £200 for the pair. Apparently they have loads left in black!

You say you can get hold of 2 45cm ones? Are they silver columns, if so how could I got about obtaining them?

Cheers,

Tim

don't know if i'm allowed to tell you cause I work there but maybe a moderator 'll let me know if it breaks rules. The poles are Gunmetal which is probably close enough to silver!
