    Default What feet do you use under your speakers ?

    I've been using a pair of Tannoy 637 floorstanders for the last few years . They're currently on some spikes . The problem is that I have laminate flooring in my listening room and so have to sit them on either pieces of granite or little wooden platforms . I was contemplating fitting rubber feet instead of the spikes and putting them on the floor . Anyone have any experience in changing from spikes to another type of feet for speakers ? If so what are you using ?

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Soundcare Superspikes are what you need.

    They look perfect but couldn't find any details of dimensions or thread size. I use similar on some of my large speakers, stands and racks.

    I use these: http://www.sonicdesign.co.uk/homepage.html on a wooden floor. As well as protecting the floor I personally find they sound better than spikes.
