What your choice speakers with spikes or speakers with a vibration isolation device?

I suspended my Rogers LS35a speakers from eye 👁 hooks in the ceiling with bungee cords. Was that so wrong?

Geoffcait, I don’t have enough scientific chops to say either way. I would think that if the bungee cords still had some spring affect in them then it would be the same or better than a spring loaded solution on the floor. I have been fascinated with the line array speakers that you see at commercial venues. They make sense there I wonder if that idea will creep in to the home audio market. I guess somebody is going to have to figure out how to make it lookLast commercial and more homey

Yes, bungee cords act like springs. Same idea whether the springs are compression type or the tension type. 

The best choice would depend upon the speakers used, the floor/substructure composition and (of course) your ears/preference.

List your gear/room/floor info in order to receive informed/meaningful opinions.
