As long as I'm here ;-) :
I'm assuming every LFT-8b owner bought and is using the Sound Anchors stands specific for the speaker. If so, and you intend to keep the ET's for a while, an accessory to consider is the Seismic Pod by Townshend Audio.
While many speakers are candidates for the full Seismic Platform or Podium (I forget which is for loudspeakers), the LFT-8 mounted on the dedicated SA stand is not one of them. The SA stand is a T-shaped outrigger design, and Seismic Pods installed in place of the stock spikes works great. The LFT's center of mass is such that a "C" Pod bolted onto each of the two front legs and a single "D" Pod on the lone rear leg balances perfectly. I had John at Townshend send me Pods made with a bolt hole through the top "cap", which allowed me to bolt the Pods directly onto the bottom surface of three legs (using thread adapters I got from those provided with the IsoAcoustic GAIA footers ;-). The top of the cap is the same diameter as the width of the SA legs, so the pairing looks they were made for each other. Whether the sonic improvement justifies the expenditure I'll leave up to others. I'm not going back to the spikes ;-) .
