I moved my floor standing bass reflex 3 ways from a bare floor to a carpeted room and noticed much softer vocals but also a softer (wooly?) bass. I have been supporting the speakers with furniture cups. Will stands firm up the bass without losing the softer edge on the vocals? You can see my system on the bare floor under budget systems, "my NADS". Thanks
You might find that nuts or balls sound best...sorry, I have that juvenile thing too. What about spikes, or I had great success with symposium svelts, although they will run around $350 used. I also have some of those square cork things with the rubber on the outside laying around here somewhere. I don't remember what they're called but PM me if you want them cheap.
Have you played with tilting them upwards or placing them in a different position? The carpet probably has less to do with it than the room dimensions. It seems like you are dealing with different overall acoustics more than speaker height.
