Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend!

OK, I have elevated my belief in isolation.  For the first time I feel I have entered the Hi Fidelity zone.  About 3 weeks ago I purchased the Townshend Speaker Bars.  My muddy bass cleaned up, I have better imaging, clarity, precision, speed and focus.  My buddy who is not not into HiFi but has followed my adventures, was blown away.  He said, "OK, now I get why you do this."  Best money spent! 

Denon DL160 (re-tipped by Soundsmith) > Thorens TD150 > McIntosh 8900 > ALK Extreme Slope in Klipsch Belles.  Just another step in the long journey, but a Giant Step for my enjoyment.  My system took a large enough step forward that I am drawn into listening to all of my 2K plus albums again just to enjoy them in a new way. Great people to deal with too, even with Brexit messing things up.  Highly recommended!
I am not associated with them in any way, just want to pass it on.

Hi all,

 I am very interested in the Podiums and I am about to order them.
My only hesitation is the size. The base of the size 4 is matching exactly the depth of my speakers and is a bit wider ( so adding the pods area it looks like a good match) whereas the size 5 will give me more room under the speakers.
in terms of weight both are ok ( my speakers are 320 lbs each…).
 I am more inclined to order the size 4 but what would be recommended ?
Thanks
Alex

Ok thanks all. Yes I liaised with John. It seems both would work and I was wondering if practically speaking it was better to have bigger ( or “exact fit”) based on real-life experience.
Also my floor is tiles. Would it still be possible to move a bit the speakers if needed with the podium in place?
