So......what do you use under your speakers?


Looking to replace the stock spikes on my new speakers (Vivid Audio) that will make improvements in sound as well as give me a little more height. I have a commercial grade carpet over concrete with no padding. Not really looking to alter any frequency range but wouldn't mind general overall improvements in clarity, imaging, etc. I have been looking at Eden Sound Terracones, Stillpoints and Wave Kinetics. Price is not a deal breaker. TIA.

Thanks for all the recommendations. Let me say the problem isn't with the speakers. In fact of the many 30k plus speakers I have had in my system these are by far the most musical, natural, versatile ones I have owned/heard. Since they are new I have had brass floor protectors glued onto those teflon furniture mover discs to make it easier to move them around in order to find their sweet spot. After experimenting I realize that I prefer the speakers about an inch or more higher than what the stock spikes will give me. I also do not like the sound of the spikes in contact with my cement slab. I did speak with Stillpoints and their sales mgr. said that the Vivid G2 speakers are among the few speakers that would not benefit from their products, which he said was a testament to the design and build of these beauties. So at the end of the day what I would like to acquire is a product the will give me the height requirements I am looking for and that will serve to isolate the spikes from my cement slab without altering any frequency range but that will enhance the speed, articulation, etc. of an already SOTA speaker system.
