Calling Thiel owners please...


Anyone using spikes other than the ones supplied? I broke one and have substituted one from another speaker that works fine - but was wondering. Thanks

The steel spikes sing a negative song but are better than no spikes..Not all Thiels accept the same shaft diameter.. The newer Thiels require a threaded shaft the older models are a smooth pressure fit..The Audiopoints will collect and dissipate to ground more cabinet resonance than any other similar device. The ultimate collector and dissipator will be the appropriate Sistrum platform. Please keep in mind the heaviest most dense speaker cabinets often need the most help in releaving their stored resonances. More mass more stored energy, more help required..Tom
Pops the brass allow is soft compared to the steel points you replaced. After a few days the brass will meld and form fit to the Thiel provided openings. You will have a more stable and vivid soundstage and a more physcially stable speaker./Tom
