Wet carpet under system


I’ve had a situation where the carpet under my system and speakers got soaked from a leak somewhere because of the heavy rain. The components are on a table removed from the floor.  But the speakers are on spikes.  Is there any danger of shock or other malady that could befall the equipment?

Hope you don't have LP's near that area. The longterm problem is going to be mold. Decades ago part of my record collection was on carpeting that was soaked from an air conditioner that leaked while I was on vacation. 90% of the LP's were ruined within a few weeks (that was before record cleaners). 

You may have to keep an eye on mold in your gear as well, for a while.
