Speakers on floor?


Mapleshade sells some speaker stands and seems to advocate putting small speakers on the floor on small stands (thick wood) and aiming the speakers up at an angle.

Have any of you tried this?
What was the effect?

Thanks,

When on carpet, spikes help the steadiness of the box to not move front and back when the woofer is pulsating, which is always. Never worked for me on carpet without spikes of some kind.
Many, if not most, speaker owners manuals of the higher end, do speak of tweeter height, at least what I have experienced. But more importantly, they speak of the listeners sweet spot, along with speaker/room interaction.
