B&W 802 and Stillpoints

Ralph it sort of sounds like you are working with hard floors given your description. What about using a thick layer of putty or elastomer. It seems that one method of this is to couple the vibration to an immovable object (like bookshelves on a stand with blutak) or to provide some isolation from vibration. In this case it seems logical to assume we are trying to decouple the speaker from the floor. One increases coupling and one decouples. How about a experiment where you go over the top in each direction to see which works. One is putty coupling to the floor, while the other is a urethane or something between the speaker and the floor to absorb (decouple) the speaker induced vibrations. Just a thought. Curious to hear what you decide/find. I was not kidding about not hearing anything in my system. That does not mean though that I'm not willing to experiment if someone finds something interesting.

I have recently put the Ultra Stillpoint footers attached with inserts under my Sophia III,s and the difference was a double-wow, but the real surprise happened when i did the same for a pair of JL-f113 subs and that,also, made just as drastic improvement. Not just in bass but mids and highs also. Even though i have the latest SP rack with all units on Ultras the difference under the speakers made the most difference. The rack and ultras were unfortunately put in last due to various reasons, but these made the difference of being totally satisfied and not quite happy.

Which 802's M,N,or D, or Diamond? I have the 802s3 Matrix on dedicated sound anchor stands with beefy cone points. Amazing Bass, clarity and imaging.
What are you driving them with?

Marc777, did you put the ulta's on hard flooring or carpet? I am considering trying them, but wonder how this would work on carpet direct. Would it be an option to put a maple board underneath - or even een maple board with spikes? any thoughts?

Finite Elemente has Cerabase especially made for B&W. They look like the real deal:
