    I'm looking into getting a laptop stand for xmas and I'd like some recommendations from you guys on some good ones (with a sensible price tag too please :D ).

    Its for my 15" MacBook Pro and will sit behind my Xone92. Space is slightly limited and was hoping to get one where the base of the stand could go underneath the Xone92.

    Any suggestions?

    Odyssey L stand or any of the others like it are sturdy, can attach different ways, inexpensive, but not very portable.

    In UK the Odyssey is made by Magma.

    Have had the Magma 1.0 and the Magma 2.0.
    Heres the stats.

    MAGMA 1.0. Really sturdy. Has an angled postition that helps viewing the laptop. Does not fold away so has to be assembled each time which isnt that bad actually. Although my big gig bag has enough room for the stand to sit in facing up and i can get my VCI and laptop inbetween the up turned legs.
    RECOMMENDED.

    MAGMA 2.0. Wobbly as f*ck, Folds away flat but opens up so awkwardly that it gets stuck. Isnt angled. Build quality is so bad i dont know how it gets passed Q&A.
    AVOID.

    I also own both and I agree 100% with Karlos...I wanted use the 1.0 at home as it is permantly setup and the 2.0 when playing out in clubs (it folds away and comes with a nice bag)...but as the 2.0 rather sucks I always end up takin my 1.0 to the clubs!
    By the way there is a 2.1 version out now:
