Offered is „Entasis“ by Music Tools as second-hand device from the category „Speaker-Stand“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 5719439320 ends on 24.10.2026 at 16:12 o'clock.
A solid, niche stand from a respected Italian hi-fi accessory maker, and the €300 asking price looks like a strong deal. Against the recent comparable market, that sits well below the €450 25th percentile and far under the €978 median, so it reads as bargain territory rather than merely fair.
What makes it worthwhile is the usual Music Tools recipe: heavy, well-braced construction, proper floor coupling, and a design aimed at getting standmounts stable and better isolated. If the pair is complete with spikes and damping fill, this is an easy buy for anyone matching the top-plate size to a suitable monitor. At this price, the main thing to confirm is basic completeness and that the stands are straight and unmodified.

Fidelity Research emerged from Tokyo in 1964, founded by Isamu Ikeda amid Japan's postwar audio boom. The company quickly established itself as a precision engineering powerhouse, focusing on analog playback components during the golden age of vinyl. Operating until around 1984, it embodied the meticulous craftsmanship that defined high-end Japanese hi-fi, with designs that prioritized sonic purity and mechanical innovation.
The brand specialized in moving-coil (MC) phono cartridges and tonearms, earning acclaim for models like the MC-202 cartridge and the iconic FR-64 and FR-66 series. These products featured advanced materials such as stainless steel and specialized alloys, delivering exceptional tracking, detail retrieval, and dynamics. While not venturing into amplifiers, speakers, or digital gear like DACs, Fidelity Research honed a narrow but masterful niche in turntable essentials.
Today, Fidelity Research holds vintage-collector status among discerning audiophiles, revered for its high-end analog prowess. Once priced at premiums like $495 for top tonearms, its gear commands cult following in the used market, prized for timeless transparency and build quality that rivals modern boutique offerings. For vinyl enthusiasts seeking uncompromised heritage, it remains a benchmark.
