A recent thread about speaker/floor isolation


OMG!! I recently read a forum thread here dealing with speaker isolation from the floor. I had a pair of 1-3/4" maple blocks laying around unused so I thought I would place them under my Legacy Audio Focus 20/20's on carpet. I can not believe the difference. I am in awe! The sound stage is improved, the bass articulation is unbelievable the speakers are now showing me what they can really do. Everything from low end to treble is greatly improved. Whoever started that thread, thank you. I am now enjoying my system so much more.

Congratulations on your excellent choice in speakers. The Legacy Focus' are one of my favorite speakers.

I use the Legacy Signature III's and had the same experience as you. I ordered two unfinished maple platforms from Mapleshade.

I spiked the platforms to the floor, then spiked the speakers to the platforms as well. Night and day and top to bottom improvement.  You can see them just by double clicking on my icon. 

By the way, the Legacy speakers love tube electronics.
