Anyone try decoupling speakers from the room?


Just wondering if anyone else has suspended their speakers. My first attempt was with an old pair of infinity's which I placed on top of a bicycle tube. I was wondering if manufacturers would design a speaker with this in mind? My main purpose is to keep the floor from resonating, IMHO it works well.

9rw,
The speakers are a product of a genius, I believe that by me trying a different approach is an attempt to make them more synergistic to my room and not any attempt at changing them. I use Bobby's bam and the speaker itself is not modified. It's too bad some are close-minded.
9rw,
To me the bass becomes cleaner, tighter more distinct. The speaker seems to vanish. They sound incredible this way. I haven't heard my vsm's on the floor in awhile and there have been alot of changes at my source so I will revisit the comparisons some day. This suspension started as an effort to lessen any disturbance to my downstairs neighbor and as a side benefit I got a sound I am really happy with. I probably will make a ton of changes in the future always trying to improve on things, one thing I will most defenitely do is try the vsm's on the floor and will gladly report the winner, who knows maybe I was wrong all this time. The journey is what really counts.
