Speaker platform


I wanted to know opinions on speaker platforms. I will be custom ordering a new audio equipment rack (Tiger Maple )and amplifier (Tiger Maple ) platforms from Timbernation for my new Audio Research REF 750s.  I was wondering is it a good idea to also have platforms under my speakers. I have the B&W 800 Matrix. They do have a platform used to stand them up. But not sure what they are made of. Also I have solid oak floors. Thanks.

Could have a look at Stack Audio Auva, well reviewed alongside the IsoAcoustics Gaia.

I once had Mapleshades slabs/cherry finished to match floorstanders.

Stunning looks. Made the $3500 speakers look $10K.

Didn't "improve" SQ,   but did  not degrade sonics.

Mapleshade maybe a little more refined finish work, but you'll pay for it.

 

I can’t think of an incident where Townshend Podiums were introduced and there was anything but endless praise. They are a no brainer.

 

Amazing system you have!

@ghdprentice Should give this a read as there appears to be a challenger to the Townshend Podiums. I have the Auva 100's on order to stick under my Sonus faber Maxima Amator's. I respect Paul's opinions and he is also not one to get to hung up on $. I put him right there with Darko.

OP,

 

Thanks for your references. I reintegrate my comments from dozens of folks over that last few years. 
 

I look forward to hearing your evaluation of the isolator feet.
