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!”

Tried different things with speaker mounting over the years, solid stone floor and found spikes worked well with the different speakers I’ve had.
The big Impulse H2’s played nice with a heavy floor tile under the spikes, with other speakers the slab just sucked the bass out.
Go figure, maybe not a one stop solution for every setup?
Happy to have settled with what I have, best sounding combo for my speakers.
Herbies Sliders sat under speaker outrigger feet, and sat in Isoacoustics Gaia carpet spikes.
A faff to get them fitted, but worth the time.
My systems got some low end welly, with speakers mounted this way there’s no bass interaction at all with the floor.
Ok with not having it on Betamax nowadays

Never used spikes - for the simple reason that for all of my gear, the relevant manufacturer has not mentioned it (and I assume they know what they are talking about).

I think I used them once, on the bottom of stands when I had some little Mission speakers. That's decades ago.
If you think about it, it's difficult to see what they are supposed to achieve.

Well in the olden days, when hifi speakers tended to be fridge-shaped they'd happily stay where you put them, but as speakers got taller and narrower the smaller footprint made them less stable, especially on carpets.

true, but unless the spikes were on outriggers, they weren't going to widen the footprint so wouldn't improve stability unless you hammered them deep into the floorboards.
Which I am guessing no-one did. Plus how would you then screw them into the cabinet?

Yeah,I know it shouldn't matter, but they do look really good
didn’t turn out too bad.
A Billy Bonus is that the speakers sit rock solid on the floor, zero wobble, but as the sliders sit on the carpet discs I had a few degrees of play to dial the toe-in …in.
Speakers isolated from the floor with the feet sitting in the Herbies sliders, and the whole speaker assembly clamped to the floor through the carpet spikes.
Advantages of speaker isolation and coupling to the floor… Best of both worlds?
Dunno, works well though.
