Quatro Wood setup help

probably...The 7 feet allow for leveling, all the other models use washers, which would be not fine enough adjustment.

I have yet to jump on the isolation bandwagon [ REO ] .... and I think it took Helmut Brinkman with his own personal model 7 w Brinkmann Gfanite isolation system to gain a concensus that it yielded better overall sound...in the Munich demo room... [ hope to attend next year ! ].....a matter of priority I guess, other things in my system I would like address first....

I know Mapleshade consider solid Maple superior to glued up laminate but I had some leftover almost 2” think laminate left from a kitchen remodel..I made them into amp stands w Model 5 cones, I did use a T nut from the top also.  You could probably build a set of Maple w 7 cones and get a stand that you can level fairly inexpensively.....Remember parts thru your local dealer, service via factory. BTW for my MC240, sonics worth it. The MC250 didn’t care...ha

my amp stands in WA, TREO in CA, otherwise I would give it a listenten and let ya know...

have fun

cut some trail

tell us what you learn

If you're concerned about leveling...use a penlight laser (very cheap on the internet), a couple of post-it stick-ums and a pencil.  Place the penlight laser on the flat op of the speaker slowly move it left to right, until you can see the red laser dot behind your seated position.  Put the post-it on the wall where the dot is and mark it with the pencil.  Do the same thing to the other speaker...you will see the laser above/below the dot on the wall.  Adjust one speaker so that the laser falls directly on top of the dot of the other speaker..   The speakers are perfectly aligned.

Great info guys and thanks.  I know I'm set up properly.  Thi sis why I'm still scared to install the plinth's when they are done, lol.  Richard said no cones, just put on the carpet.  

My friend did a ton of testing with all isolation devices and different types of isolation work better than others with folded cabinets and others better with milled ones.  He didn't do anything with speakers, but they are closer to a milled block of metal.  Some companies want to charge a lot of money for special isolation platforms for speakers, but I've spoken with many who have auditioned them and felt they did no better than what we are all talking about. Many use maple blocks.  I have a full woodshop and was thinking about asking my wood guy (we all have to have a guy) to cut me a rough set of slabs that would fit my components.  I'd then have him dry in the kiln or possibly let em air dry to whatever % water I wanted and then mill them up and .....  not worth it right now, lol.
