Shocked removed spikes, used blue tack, what other non spike footer

Cheeg I don't care if you ask, I've heard people put glass cutting boards granite, paver stones or wood with spikes then speaker on top if it, maybe some sorbathane or even cheap blue tack between glass and speaker. II looked at Gaia's, $300 to $200 for 4, that a little high for second system speakers. I know about vibra pods or herbies but never used any rubber under component it always seem to dead in sound. Not the case under floorstander with blue tak.There should be something better than blue tak, I have used blue tak between spiked monitor stand and speaker with good results. With blue tak floorstander is like glued to the floor it does not move and sounds very natural, still a little dumbfounded with the change.

+1 for the ISOAcoustic GAIAs. Have them on my speakers and subs. Made a noticeable difference in SQ. 

Since I don't have any kids or pets to worry about, I used to have my monitors sitting directly on a thick, maple stand that sat on a big enough section of tile to cover the area of the stand's base and it all rested on carpet, over concrete, over wood. 

I tried some footers for the monitors from Herbie's and they just didn't sound right. The only thing that improved the sound was some extra constrained layer damping pads I had left over from my audio gear. They're from Les Davis Audio and they're quite thin but seem to do the trick.

All the best,

I've preferred my speakers to sit right on the floor (rug over wood floor).

cheeg I've used spikes on carpet in the past and didn't care for the change in sound.Seemed thinner somehow.Just personal preference.All speaker cabinets resonate some, so each of us have to try things until the resonance becomes pleasing rather than irritating:)
