Stand - Speaker interface
Posted by: i am simon 2 on 18 October 2002
Dear all
I am realy happy with my system at the moment, hence my recent lack of posts.
Having had a hicap on loan from a friend (on the 42.5) for a few days, this confirmed that I do not need new speakers (they can do stuff that I was not previously aware was possible from such a speaker). My nex HiFi purchase will be a hicap, when funds allow.
In the menatime I would like to perfect the set up of the system. The last 6 months has seen me improve the cable dressing with large benefits to the music, and speaker position is the best I have had to date, but here is the question.
How can I create the best interface between speaker and stand.
I used to have the speakers sitting on a 2p piece under each corner, on top of the stands.
Recently I swapped this for small felt pads that are stuck to the stand, this improved the mid and top end of things, but the bass is a bit one note-ish.
Are there any spikes or cones that work well between the speaker and stand, or should I just remove the felt pads and replace with blu-tak or similar?
Any suggestions?
Simon
