Desk Speaker Mount for Bose Model 161 Speakers and others - 16° Upward Tilt

This is a remixed version of the Bose 161 speaker desk mount. I've made two key modifications to improve its functionality: 

1. **Increased Stability:** The base has been elongated to provide a larger footprint, significantly improving the stability of the speaker on your desk and reducing the risk of tipping. 

2. **Upward Angle Adjustment:** The speaker mount has been tilted upwards to approximately 16 degrees above flat. This angle is designed to direct the sound more effectively towards a user seated at a desk, optimizing the listening experience by aiming the speakers towards ear level. This remix is ideal for anyone using Bose 161 speakers on a desk who wants better stability and improved sound dispersion directly towards their listening position.

Optimum placement of speakers is such that that they are 60 degrees from each other, relative to your head placement.  This forms an isosceles triangle with the speakers and your head.  Assuming that you sit with your head approximately 12in/30cm back from the front edge of your desk and the speakers are 20in/50cm back from the edge, that would mean placing them  about 36in/93cm apart on your desk.

Total size of stand is approximately 159mm L x 100mm W x 127mm H.  With the extended Base it should also be stable to mount it with the swiveling wall mount attached, for more precise angle adjustment.  

I have also uploaded a version that has a reduced base size (by 15mm,) which should be OK for most applications.  

In a perfect world, one might attach some furniture footing felt on the bottom, to reduce vibration slightly. 

Note: I did some of the shaping in meshmixer, so you may see some visual artifacts (unsmoothness) around the speaker mounting point.  This is hidden when the speaker is mounted and doesn't affect performance.
