For my speakers, S.A.P. J2001, I prefer using a platform, specifically, a Symposium Svelte shelf. The entire bottom of the speaker sits on the shelf (no spikes), which in turn sits on carpet over wood flooring. I've also heard the Svelte Shelf used effectively with a big pair of Spendor floorstanding speakers (I believe 9/1).
Isolation Platforms vs spikz on spkrs: Wilson WP7?
Anyone experimented with either Symposium or SRA platforms vs. the stock spikes on Wilson Watt Puppy 7, Avantgarde or other speakers?
The claim is that spikes don't drain as much of the energy away from speakers as does a good platform.
