Yes, they do on concrete!!!!!!

Your friend needs to get EVERYTHING that is spiked to the sub floor off, in a hurry. the toxic shit that concrete imparts on our gear, ears & brain is nasty as all get out.

Once i unspiked my floorstanders and removed the spikes from my Lovan rack a sweet & detailed demeanor came out. My happiness with this hobby grew instantly. This was one of the fondest 'Ah ha!' moments i've had re: gear.

he should set everything right on the carpet initially & then tinker with other solutions. In his case, the carpet is a blessing.

Concrete is about the only situation where spiking is NOT recomended IMO. Maybe adding weight to the speakers elsewhere can keep them from rocking...or once they settle into the carpet & pad.
