I recall the Deadnought stands being recommended for LS3/5a speakers by the ( infamous ) Ken Kessler.

My friend’s pair are now sold.
Do try DH.
He’s very helpful.
Try Derek Hughes, son of Spencer Hughes who started Spendor.
Spendor built the 10Ls for Quad.
Derek Hughes designed the 10Ls and will know which drive units were used.

Over the years I have assembled various classic components to form a system.
The Spendor BC1s are the oldest, followed by an LP12 with a Mission 774 arm.

Amplabs of Worcester do a good job with Quad.
My 303 was serviced and and necessary parts replaced at a very competitive price,
I bought some Dentons new for £250 a while ago.
