Should I buy the Harmonix footers for $2000.00?

Raising the speakers off the ground will improve the overall audio reproduction in your system. However, I can not see how the Harmonix Footers are an advantage given their size. In my opinion, they are too short to make a substantial difference and at $2,000 you should expect superb results from your purchase.

Decoupling the speakers from the floor is essential but you can do this with cinder blocks. Purchase them at any home improvement store and spray-paint them the same color as the YG's. Total cost @$25.00. The results are outstanding. Improved dynamics and fluidity throughout the system.

Remember that it's also necessary to raise the listening position by the same height as the cinder blocks.

Why not use an Aurelex riser? Worst case scenario, they work and you've saved $1950.00. If they do, donate $100 to the earthquake relief fund or another charity and pocket the rest. Not sure how or why the more expensive product will work any better.

Harmonix footers for $2,000? I promise I won't carry on about this like I do the power cords.

Thanks for the responses. I am kind of looking st the footers in the same light as I look at quality (effective) equipment shelves/racks, etc. for our components. I guess I was hoping to hear from others that had a hard time deciding whether or not to buy these footers but ended up happy with the decision to take the plunge in the end.
