Stillpoints Ultra SS vs spikes on concrete

As i said my opinion only. I put in some of Herbies/Gliders under a pair Merlin TSMXe speakers, on Osiris speakers stands. I let them settle for 5 days before listining. Bottom line i did not like them, too thin sounding, something just did not sound right. Called Bobby at Merlin, said DO NOT UNCOUPLE speakers from spikes. He said for his speakers they must be coupled to floor thru the spikes. Kept the Coplers, using under some BDR Racing cones on different equipment. Like thet say YMMV.

Ryriken. Might be that your speakers are designed to use the floor to add weight to the bass? Are you on wood or concrete? I am also now letting them settle in and will have opportunity with wife away this weekend to do some more evaluation. Then I will take them out and see if I am missing anything.

yes they are on wood floor over carpeting. In second floor bedrrom used as a listening rom.Am using a sub, but really don;t need it. Bobby makes a and designs his speaker so he should know, don't cars what JS says.Kept the sliders for other duties, under my amps and cd, with BDR racing cones.

Yup, he and your ears should know what sounds best. Happy listening
