    Bell jar bungs used in home brewing work as good as anything and they are cheap.Even tapered to be aesthetically pleasing in the modern home Mick

    I'm using the small rubber feet that came stuck to the bottom of the speakers. Given the speakers weight 132kg each, I'm not in any hurry to experiiment with any others!

    My speakers are bolted to their stands, the stand floor bases are decoupled using Bright Star IsoNodes. So much better than using spikes.

    Have a look at Something Solid missing link feet as well Brian, sold by those good people at deco audio. They may seem a bit expensive but they really open up the sound and in
    my system made quite a difference. Best to look at pics on there website but basically the spike is suspended and not touching ground at all. best wishes B

    I use Shepherds 2" castors on my equipment rack and speaker stands which has no detrimental effect on the sound quality and makes things a lot easier when having to move them around for floor hoovering

    That's a good idea. I'm going to have castors on my Tannoys when they eventually get built.

    I have used Soundcare Superspikes as well as SD footers, amongst other bits and pieces, gliders, castors, etc. Most to my ears and setup, have seemed to alter things in a very subtle manner, nothing to the OMG kind of thing. Like most things of this nature, experiment and find what you like and stick with it, and then sit back and enjoy your music.
