    Default What do you use in between your speakers and their stands ?

    The reason I ask is because my latest speakers appear to have been designed to sit directly on the stands , surely this can’t be good ?
    My current ones ( electrocompaniet qubes ) have a solid copper plate ( about 8mm deep ) that the speakers sit on , I’m thinking of fitting either black tac or gel pads .

    Can't you use the isopucks? They look lovely speakers
    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    Welcome matey.

    They give good protection to the base of the speaker, plus a bit of decoupling (but not too much). 👍🏻

    In the past I've used rubbery (or felt if they've only got those) stick on feet from the pound shop

    You get about 60-80 of various sizes in a packet.

    Doesn’t it seem odd that a manufacturer would sell their speakers with the matching stands and not provide any kind of isolation item

    I use Black Tac at the moment. I did try some Vibrapods but thought they sounded worse and there was more vibration if you felt the base of the stands, not very secure either, so I sent them back for a refund. If I get new stands they will have Custom Design Isolation Pads anyway, I will try them.

    I don't like putting them directly onto the stands.

    Nice looking speakers.

    Thanks Ray , I have used black too on many an occasion until on one occasion it pulled the veneer off on some Kef 103’s , I guess it won’t damage these though
