Good thing you didn’t go with the Gaias because they are a nightmare with carpet, especially thick carpet.
One thing I’ve learned over the years is that when leveling spiked speakers, you often have to adjust the spikes by only small fractions of a revolution (like 1/6th) in order to get all spikes firmly contacting the substrate. So you feel the speaker rocking at the top panel and think maybe one whole counter-clockwise turn of the short spike will do the trick when in reality it only takes 1/2 turn or less.
Wooden subfloors make this even trickier because you have to account for the spikes penetrating the wood and over time they settle. In those situations you want spikes with a wide cone angle similar to the Dayton Audio ISO-4C.
