Yes. Some later models had inserts.
Replacement Spikes For Thiel CS2s
I just bought a pair of old CS2s, but there were no spikes included. From researching the original spikes, it appears that there were some type of sleeves in the base to insert the spikes. My base has 3 holes, but there are no sleeves. Does anyone know of any aftermarket spikes with sleeves that will fit in the existing holes?
+ 1 @soix Hi , sorry to complicate your problem, but I just dealt with heavy carpet and pad on a cement slab floor. I’ve had a lifelong affair with spikes for large speakers and heavy Sound Anchor stands. I recently switched from spikes to decoupling. It totally went against my long established beliefs. I wound up going with Townsend Seismic Podiums. At a less costly option consider the options mentioned above. Also search my history and read the extensive thread that evolved regarding spikes Vs decoupling. I did a fair amount of experimenting and had a HUGE IMPROVEMENT decoupling. The tipsy thing totally goes against that old mindset , but it is better. Contact Tuff Nutt and get some advice. Look at Herbies too and the more expensive products like Stack Audio, Gaia, and Townsend. But try something outside the box and let your ears make the choice. Decoupling gave me a larger soundstage, cleaner midrange , and improved bass. I have totally changed my belief in spikes, but I had to overcome incorrect thinking. Happy Listening, Mike B. |
