Stainless Spikes
Just replaced the Cheap metal spikes on my wall shelf with these, they are superb quality & polished aswell, look a million dollars compared with the originals...Make sure you have M8's tho & take note that they are reletivly short in length.

Shock news - Andre embraces Mana!
LOL - that's *exactly* what I'm using at the moment throughout my system (they came with my stainless steel racks and Soundstages...) So, yes, there are probably 'one or two' of them in total!
I'd probably know the guy selling them if he gave his proper name.

Ey up Marco. Not sure that it is. Were you thinking it might have been John?Hi Steve,
Do you know him - is he one of the crew from the old days?
Marco.
Looks from the email address from my order its a guy called Andy.
Anyway...pleased to have found these (thanks Andre). Always fancied trying out SS spikes, but missed out at the time.
Mind you...not really looking forward to taking my Mana racks apart. Maybe leave it till Christmas and there is nothing on the telly.
