| Speaker Spike Philosophy Anyone who has taken physics (which includes anyone with an engineering degree) should know what Coulomb friction is. It may be more widely understood than not. But we digress... | |

| Speaker Spike Philosophy @sokogear, thanks for the advice. Garage is in Houston area and is not climate-controlled, but it is an attached garage. It did not get below 32 F when we had our recent snowpocalypse with temps dipping (just) into the single digits. Summers here... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy <soapbox on>I am really not interested in seeing personal slights. My OP was a set of technical inquiries. Was hoping to see mature technical responses. Most replies thus far have been. Seeing the beginnings of a departure from that here... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy Has anyone else considered that the area of the driver creating the sound pressure wave also meets with resistance from the air it's moving, both inside and outside of the enclosure (assuming it is used in such a fashion). @rixthetrick, yes. S... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @ausaudio, I agree with the light finger pressure at the upper back edge of the speaker, to ID rigid body rocking response. As for rigid body translational response, the bottom of the speaker might be better. I don't know though if we can conclu... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @aschuh, that would be quite true if the force were static. In your example, that force is reversing direction 60 times per second. No problem for an 8-oz woofer cone. The displacement (vibration) response of the 100-lb sub in rigid-body mode a... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @ausaudio,You caught me in some less-than-clear writing.The second quote is based on a tacit assumption that we are talking about hard floors. This is what I have, and I tend to default to it without necessarily giving the reader the appropriate ... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @wokeuptobose, I am keen to hear a report from your upcoming experimentation; I do hope you will post back to this thread or at least put a link here. Thanks! | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @mijostyn, I wonder if what you are feeling with hand on speaker is primarily flexible modes being excited, which locking the speaker to the floor will not really attenuate. Spiking the speaker to the floor (if it actually works as intended) would... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy Thank you all for the considered and well-crafted replies. All of them. I got something useful out of each one, and greatly enjoyed the morning read. I expected a much lower signal-to-noise ratio than I received from you guys--my mistake. I am not... | |
