If there is no danger of the speakers being bumped into then consider floating the speakers on Aurios MIB. Even the original model, now termed 1.0, can create an enhanced speaker performance. If you place one or two granite or marble tiles from Home Depot on your rug to create a level surface beneath each speaker then place one set of three Aurios MIB for $100 used per speaker between the tile and the speaker. This only works if speaker cable is supported so that there is no pulling on the speakers. You can "tune" this tweak by placing a non-rolling isolation block under each Aurios. These blocks are $10 per set of four from Audiogon member Rcreations ( I think this is correct spelling) and consist of ribbed rubber surrounding cork center. There are many discussion threads about coupling versus de-coupling. The Aurios MIB's help many speakers sound better, even if it is so different from the popular spike method.
Alternative to Speaker spikes
My Silverline Sonata's MK.lll come with spikes that screw on but I prefer not to use them because of carpet damage, and they make moving the speakers nearly impossible (Speakers weigh 110lbs. each). Are there rubber feet out there anyone can recommend that will do the job of spikes? Please keep in mind the weight of these speakers.
Thanks.
Thanks.
