A blessing in disguise. Upgrade to Nobsound springs for only $20/set of 4. Try them first under your M5, discover they are about as good as Gaia for a fraction of the cost. Amazon has them for about $30 but they are on Ali Express for only $20. They are adjustable, you will only need 3 or 4 springs not 7, and can build new sets for your other components from the 3 or 4 leftover springs. Bargain tweak of the century.
Recommendation for carpet spikes for Dynaudio Stand 20 speaker stands
I have the Dyn stands for my Buchardt speakers, but lost the supplied carpet spikes. Can anyone help me out with replacements for them? I have posed the question to Dynaudio a couple of times but have gotten no response. Any alternative modestly-priced means of coupling these heavily-weighted stands, filled with lead/sand, would be appreciated. I have Iso-Acoustics GAIA footers under my main speakers, Spatial Audio M5 Triode Master, but prefer a less expensive alternative for the Buchardt's. Thank you.
