Clearthinker is absolutely right. Any vibration of the speaker is distortion. The game is to hold the speaker as rigidly as possible under the circumstances. Springs are beyond belief silly even on a wooden floor which is going to vibrate at it's resonance frequency regardless. A concrete floor is wonderful as least for speakers. Not so much for turntables as there is rumble that will travel through a concrete floor. Speakers should always be spiked if possible. If a stand is used they should be firmly attached to the stand and the stand spiked to the floor.
Should I use Speaker Spike / Isolation Base or Something?
Hello,
Some speakers have 4 sets of pucks (made of thermoplastic) in its bottom.
I think it would work great on hard floor.
But how about carpeted floor? Can I just put this puck foot on the carpet?
Or should I replace it with spike?
Or should I put kind of plate (Isolation Base) between the carpet and the speaker puck?
Or can I just use something like bamboo cutting board (from thin one from Ikea to 4” thick butcher board)?
What would be the best way? :)
