    Default Isolating speakers from suspended floor

    When I first started this stuff I was led to believe that spikes were ‘mechanical diodes’, now I realise this is nonsense and they are there to achieve the most rigid possible coupling. This means the speaker “sees” the floor, or the component sees the rack. For a concrete floor it is more appropriate to couple as the floor isn’t going to move, but suspended wooden floors are a different story!

    Interesting thread and a subject I have been researching carefully, as I have a listening room in a Victorian house with a wooden suspended floor.

    The loudspeakers I will be using are of my own design weighing 150 kgs each and will be looking for a solution to isolate them.

    I have been looking at various commercial solutions but the ones that might work ate over £1,000

    The solution I will try will likely be a DIY effort as I do not want to throw £100s at it with no guarantee of good results.

    The footprint of my loudspeakers is around 26" x 21"

    Research continues.
