What works without damaging the cabinet or the speakers depends on the finish on each. I have had the mats or tool box drawer liners leave marks on both lacquer and oil finishes. I would consider felt. For electronics and speakers I have made corian discs with felt on the bottom. It does not look like there are any kind of feet on the Evoke 20s so maybe just lay a piece of felt from a fabric store and then check it periodically to make sure it is not drying out either finish. You can get the felt in almost any color as well.
Bookshelf speakers on a wood cabinet
Seeking suggestions for a material to place between the bottom of a speaker and the top of a heavy wood cabinet to protect both but, the cabinet in particular from scratches, etc. The situation is for a non-audiophile brother who asked me to help with assembling a decent stereo system. The speakers are Dynaudio Evoke 20 bookshelf style. They weigh about 22 pounds each. My first thought was that black and sort of foamy drawer liner material, which would be quite thin and essentially invisible. This is mostly about function rather than sound enhacement. Ideas?
