Townshend Springs under Speakers


I was very interested, especially with all the talk.   I brought the subject up on the Vandersteen forum site, and Richard Vandersteen himself weighed in.   As with everything, nothing is perfect in all circumstances.  If the floor is wobbly, springs can work, if the speaker is on solid ground, 3 spikes is preferred.

yep, just look at the impulse test, a few peers… Jim Theil, Dunlavey ( RIP )… odd that Kef chose to fix the impulse response of the LS50 in the digital domain.

Also odd non Vandersteen owners take issue with his listening and measurements…of springs… all are free to listen and decide for themselves…. what did you just call it in another thread ; “imagined enemy “

indeed, look homeward….
I guess I should see what’s happening homeward as you say, but my brother who I talk with hasn’t expressed much concern. Americans ask me about the whole Covid lock down in Australia, my brother gets on with life, not worried by it. He's safely up in Queensland.

Mind you, it should be understood the total deaths attributed to Sars Cov 2 in Australia is 1039 https://covidlive.com.au/report/deaths

Like any other disease, get on with the treatment plan. We’re not back where we were a year ago, doctors have learnt a lot by actually studying this little monster.

If you're refering to me, for the record I have no issue with Vandersteen's listening or measurements.
I haven't seen the measurements, nor would I dispute a person's personal preference. 
Again I have "no idea" why spring isolation would be less effective with Vandersteen speakers. Others have postulated reasons.
