I do own the legs, but I find them too high to play the synth while
sitting on a chair (and far too low to play it while standing). So I
placed my CS80 on a small steel office-furniture-cabinet on wheels
(lxbxh = 80x40x60cm). Now I can reposition the synth without any effort
all on my own, and I can store a lot of stuff - service manual etc ;-)
inside the cabinet-drawers. I used some wooden spacers to make sure the
ventilation is not restricted. Since the CS80 hang's over in the front
a lot (the weight is at the back) there's enough space free for my own
legs.
Besides: the original legs are not friendly to the floor, there are
only 2 leveling-devices, the other 2 contact-areas are just some small
steel pins, not very nice and not good for your mariage...
