Both stands are well designed, but the Model 1's are a bit more stout. While the brass cones are nice, they won't pierce the carpet as well as I prefer. You may want to consider a true spike as a replacement. If they are coupling well to your floor, you may want to check to be sure that they are level.
I have the same/similar cones on the bottom of my Linbrook Floorstanding monitors. I haven't decided whether I'm going to replace the carpet or install hardwoods, so I haven't made a move as of yet. At some point, I may order a set of Sound Anchor bases for them if I go with carpet. If I go with hardwoods, I'll get some discs for the cones.
