Removing spikes... Now my speakers sing


Have you tried to replace the spikes under your speakers, and replace them by footers ?  I find a better unity in the music from my speakers, and beefy sound, and more natural music.

audiosens, what type of floor do you have, e.g., hardwood on suspending floor, concrete, carpet over concrete, etc., etc.?

The type of flooring makes a big difference in the outcome.

Too many variables in play to recommend a specific approach. The design of the speakers - port in the bottom/front/rear, weight, type of the floor (what's right below the speaker, next layer, etc.), height of the rug, etc., etc. What works for me may and probably will not work for you. Rule of thumb; couple with concrete floor and decouple/isolate from suspending floor. My experience FWIW.
"Find all the things wrong with that statement."

Okay, I'll bite...I think they are both saying the same thing - they are absorbing the cabinet vibrations by adding the damping material...
Or, hang the speakers and the listening couch/chair from the ceiling and take the floor completely out of the equation. Problem solved.
