If I could do it all over again, I'd buy better bookshelf speakers and two subs. This is what I learned from my garage system as the bookshelf speakers with 5.25 inch woofers generally blend well with a 12 inch sub in-room.
So my suggestion: for the price of the floorstanding speakers anyone is looking at, spend it on bookshelf speakers, speaker stands, and a sub instead.

The speaker is 18 3/8" tall so I would guess the tweeter center is about 13" (I do not have one here). The stools you link to are 22" tall so you can figure from that depending on your seating and height. It does not have to be exact...but I would not recommend a 6-8" stand unless you listen sitting on the floor or the stands tilt the speakers up to point at you.
It's not just cheapaudioman and me that think this speaker is overhyped.
Amir at audiosciencereview also doesn't like the speaker. Read his review.

Out of the 25 headphones and speakers I have tried, I disliked the Polk S15's the most.
I'm very tolerant of headphones/speakers when it comes to this hobby and don't even consider myself an audiophile.
You don't have to have crazy detail, perfect balance in terms of sound signature, instrument separation, pinpoint imaging and extra wide soundstage with perfect timbre to impress me.
But the Polk S15 sounded worst than your average consumer speaker to me, I honestly thought mine were broken.
I remember reading a post on reddit of a person who just upgraded from a Logitech z5500 and completely disappointed how this "audiophile" speaker, the S15's sounded worse than his z5500's.
To each his own but I'm not the only one.
