Wilson Audio Sophia spike options

The Herbie's are back in place , I can hear some slight differences but to be honest , I can't pinpoint what they are , but my wife thinks the Herbie's look more cosmo than the stock items , so that's final .

@Rhyno , haven't had a chance to sit down and have a proper listen but will advise when i do ...

any change in sonics due to the stock gliders vs the Herbies?

Oh , ok , I went and removed my Herbie's gliders and replaced them with the stock ones but my wife like the look of the Herbies , happy wife , happy life .... Cheers .

No offense meant to anyone, but my reaction was to the (in my view) obsessive compulsive nature of the question-spike options. I apologize in advance. But still.

@Rpeluso , I gather that's a thumbs down on my choice ?

@Rpeluso , I take it that's a thumbs down on the Herbie's ???

I don't f'ing believe it, just don't/can't.

I am using Herbie's Audiolab titanium decoupling gliders at $25.00 a pop and have no complaints . the big advantage of these , at least on smooth floors like polished timber , is that they allow one person to easily make adjustments to the speaker placement , and I think they look cool ....

Any update Bgmyers? Just curious as i am now considering Stillpoints Ultra 5s under my Wilsons.

Thank you. I will advise.

Agree with JFrech...nice system! Congrats and enjoy!

FWIW, I have considered a similar change-up on my Wilsons...the footers i have considered are: Wave Kinetics N2S, Harmonix 999...i was told 999 definitely has a sound...smooth, warm. Wave Kinetics natural/neutral...an improvement on clarity in the upper bass and lower mids.

I have not done it yet and may not. Neither is an inexpensive option and am very happy to save the money. I note that going all the way back 10 years...it does not look like Wilson has changed the spikes much if at all across many of their speakers. Either they have not bothered...or given that Wilson is constantly pushing...they may just find they work well.

Look forward to any feedback if you try! Good luck.

Well first off, you have a very nice system, BAT amps, EAR phono on your table...I am sure it sounds fantastic !

A few have experimented here with Wilson's. I am sure you can get differnent results maybe even better results...but you can also get better from better room treatments, cables everything else...

About all you can do is try the Stillpoints or Rollerblocks...in your system...and let us know what you find out !
