you could use two of these instead http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10071172/
but that's the same price, and at least with the lack you've got the bottom bit spare if you ever decide to do another one, or you could give/sell it to a mate to do the same. the bottom bit has got screw holes on the top of it but it's not a massive deal

in relation to speakers, i decided to go active in the end, after getting advice from various people. i even went into a hifi shop and they told me to get active even though they don't sell them themselves so that tells you something! just about persuaded myself to shell out for some unesessarily expensive monitors and sub but should be getting a substantial discount at least
:Q: Safe badger, really looking forward to building this!

Got to get on and build one of these over the next week. Stupid question but I take it you need to drill the stands into the top of the shelving?

You can drive a wood screw through MDF without a drill, although I'd reccomend a powered screwdriver at least, IKEA sell them for cheap.
