Have you compared these to anything else? Just curious. I'm a big fan of vibe control, and use it under most of my electronics, as well as my TT.
Spikes don't isolate you speakers, nor do they absorb vibrations. They just couple your speakers to the floor, which may or mat not be a good thing depending on your floor (mine is carpet over cement). Yubed gear LOVES vibe control, and usually responds very well to it (depending on what you use).
It takes a fair amount of trial and error to find what works best in your system and for your tastes.
I use a symposium platform on top of a seismic sink (old style)-very effective and without changing the tonal balance. I have yet to hear anything that is better than this combo.
Have fun
Jack

John Dunlavy did not believe in anything under his speakers. He was wrong. nt - Norm 16:52:10 05/03/12 (0)
