Dogs and wobbly speakers


Hey folks.

Been having a few scares recently with the dogs and the speakers

Due to the layout of the house, right now, everything is pretty much where it has to be. Not much option on moving everything to another wall.

the LEFT speaker is near the entrance, and sometimes when i get home the dogs get too excited and bump the speaker, twice i have caught it on its way down.

the RIGHT speaker is near the stairs to the basement, a couple weeks ago the roomates girl was coming up the stairs and the dogs got excited and bumped the speaker, she caught it as it was fixin to fall down the stairs. God bless her.
Needless to say my speakers keep getting bumped and moved a centimeter here and there and i have to keep re-positioning them.

So fair i have been lucky, as the speakers have never actually hit the floor, somone has always caught em.

Obviously, something needs to happen, cause this aint cuttin it. I love my dogs and i love my speakers, so i have to find a way for them to exist in zen.

Currently the Jm Labs are bolted onto the stands, they will NOT come off, which is good or they woulda been all dinged up and dented by now.

Im toying with the idea of bolting the speakers to the floor. If you look at my virtual system you can see a pic of what i got going on here.

Currently, the speaker stands are spiked and sitting on top of granit slabs that have felt feet on the bottom to prevent them from scratching the floor.

Now, im really not too worried about damage to the floor from bolting them down, not like i am with potential scratches caused by spiked feet. I can repair 3-4 small holes in the ground a lot easier than a crapload of scratches caused by spiked feet.

Sonically, what should i expect from such an action? I wouldnt have to keep re-positioning them which would be nice, but if doing this will suck the life out of them i would rather try something else.

Any experience with having speakers bolted to the floor? Suggestions? Tips? Humerous storys? Monkey jokes?

Ellery911, Poor Lump needs 4 Lee's Press-On-Limbs just to take a leak! Don't give Slappy any ideas, as I think I saw the Ginsu Knives in a block on his kitchen counter in his System pic's? "Tough Enough to Cut through a Tail, & still slice a Tomato"! Oops, which could turn into another Slappy project just below....

Audiobugged, that is one very weird website !
Coon tails for the do-it-your-selfer ?
Ellery911, that's a sick site, but less strange !
Joe Cartoon is a gas, so is Ebaums World, wonder what Slappy thinks ?
Audiobugged,

No offense...you ok?? Weird website. Body parts...etc..??
Waaas up??? I think you need to buy a new set of speakers!
That will cure anything!!
(at least for a week) :o)
Telescope_trade, I'm Fine! I just did a fast Yahoo search to find something on the lines of a review for the DK Design Amps, & there it was!

See it could be worse, if WE weren't into HI-FI as a hobby? You could be like this guy, & spend the whole day running in circles chasing your own tail.

I think I might take your cure advice, buy a new pair of speakers anyhow just to be on the safe side?

Where is Slappy??? He's awefully quiet, did he get stuck in the Quick-Crete???
I gotta say audiobugged...that WAS one strange sight...did you get that off cruel.com?

where's Slappy?

probably still in bed with some hot chick!
