Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Has anyone tried strapping their speakers down?

if you just want to attach them to stands in a less than permanent way then I did that with a pair of bookshelves - that I bought wider velcro strips with adhesive and it works like a charm except I havent dealt with trying to remove the velcro from the speaker which could very well damage the bottom.

As to acoustic effects of strapping, or clamping, then I also wondered about that concerning a pair that I had which seemed great in every way but a bit boxy in that they werent all that heavy. One simple way to simulate it is to put something fairly heavy on the top of it which puts a sort of compression on the box. When I did this I thought that pair of speakers sounded a bit better but I doubt it is a real cure for speaker construction that isnt all that robust
