Northward Acoustics design and build some of the best recording studios in the world, and almost invariably use ATC monitors. They usually mount the speakers in wall, with a complex decoupling system involving nacelles, springs and Sylomer damping. But they are now offering speaker stands which are are tuned to particular weights of speaker. Seem suitable for the monitors up to SCM45As. Not cheap. Likely to be very good.
and for some eat your heart out pictures of their installations .. https://www.northwardacoustics.com/about/
Stands for 50s etc. are “in the pipeline”.
There’s a good thread on Gearspace where Northward answer questions about the stands:

from which I extract:
”Their effect varies a lot with the room design and structure, location of equipment, furniture etc.
While it is not a day and night difference, it increases clarity by drastically reducing distortion linked to re-emissions from objects and surfaces in the room. Usually the typical feedback is a better perception of depth, width and detail, with tighter and cleaner low-end.
They are also infinitely adjustable in height (not by increment) and built like a tank. They will last decades.”
