Should I use Speaker Spike / Isolation Base or Something?


Hello,

Some speakers have 4 sets of pucks (made of thermoplastic) in its bottom.

I think it would work great on hard floor.

But how about carpeted floor? Can I just put this puck foot on the carpet?

Or should I replace it with spike?

Or should I put kind of plate (Isolation Base) between the carpet and the speaker puck?

Or can I just use something like bamboo cutting board (from thin one from Ikea to 4” thick butcher board)?


What would be the best way? :)

I put Herbes under my speakers which absolutely ruined the sound of my Vandersteen 5A's. ....just wondering...if the speakers are designed at having the sound arrive at the appropriate time, springs which allow movement, will blur the sonic picture. no?.  I know that moving my speakers to absolutely vertical because of a  very slightly unequal floor, makes a very real difference for the better.
My experience over the many years in this hobby is that spikes works very good on 
wooden floors.
spikes on concrete floor makes the system 
sounds lean.

It would be helpful to know what your budget is for speaker feet.

IsoAcoustic Gaia speaker feet has recently garnered many positive reviews, perhaps more than any other feet.   Although not inexpensive, it is my final choice to use on my next speaker purchase (still gathering the funds). 
A simple observation. A member of flour standing speakers come from the fabric on spikes (e.g.  Thiel, done JM Lab). I would not bother myself  further and just trust their experience.
