Speakers slipping on speaker stands


I find that my speakers slip around a bit more than I'm comfortable with on the platform of my speaker stands. Is there anything I can do to make the placement more secure, without doing anything permanent to my speakers or stands? They haven't really come close to falling off but they do slide around and spin a bit when I touch them.

Any advice?

My favorite tweak for securing monitors to stands is artist's kneaded eraser. They come in small gray butter pad size squares and can be shaped or compressed into any shape. Kinda like Silly Puddy.

They do a great job of locking your monitors to the metal stands. I've accidentally bumped my speakers sitting on stands with 20 pounds of steel shot in them and had the entire structure lurch without the speakers coming unstuck.

Kneaded erasers have a fine light powder in it which prevents it from permanently adhering to the wood veneer on your speakers. I've had monitors on stands for three years that came off without leaving a trace. It never gets sticky or gooey, and never discolors the wood. Remarkable stuff.
