Footers under my speakers double the perceived value of my speakers!


My first experience with putting footers under my speakers was with Tannoy Westminster Royals.
With some difficulty, I put Mapleshade heavy footers under them. I was amazed. These $20k speakers, all of a sudden, became $30+ speakers! These days, I am into Stillpoints. Same thing-even more. My $30k speakers now sound like $60k speakers. I mean the imaging, the definition, the bass and everything just sounds fantastically Improved. I just put on the Stillpoints yesterday. This morning I jumped out of bed early just to be able to turn on the stereo and be floored. BTW- my speakers are 200 lbs and the Stillpoints Minis are strong enough. Pretty cheap for such an improvement!

I only have experience with the Townsend Podiums. The bars incorporate the same isolators it seems. You could use them combined with a suitable platform material. Every material will have its own sonic signature, some will work better than others in your particular system. Same can be said of isolation of the components. Max’s Pods could also be used effectively with a bit of care and attention to detail/insight. We use Townshend Podiums when using Cube speakers.

Sven Boenicke’s approach is different. He hangs his speakers on cables at the back combined with a cup and roller incorporated at the front bottom of the speaker. 

Two different approaches but both very free floating when set up correctly.
mglik, I'm just curious exactly how $20K, $30K and $60K speakers sound different? Does the price the manufacturer charges for the speaker somehow change or improve the sound? Just asking...

Btw these ideas of seismic isolation that I recommend can also be applied to your audio furniture with great benefits. Again a lot of the designs on the market can be bettered by incorporating the same devices I recommend for speakers. Best to design and make/have made your own designs, like we do.
BR3098, indeed price is not a sole governor of sound quality. I have £10k speakers which will outperform much much more expensive speakers. I have mains cables at £100 that are the equal of cables costing x20 or more. I have a USB cable that costs £700 and outperforms £3k USB cables.
