Townshend Springs under Speakers


I was very interested, especially with all the talk.   I brought the subject up on the Vandersteen forum site, and Richard Vandersteen himself weighed in.   As with everything, nothing is perfect in all circumstances.  If the floor is wobbly, springs can work, if the speaker is on solid ground, 3 spikes is preferred.

Anybody remember the scene in Pulp Fiction where Jules and Vincent are discussing why Marsellus Wallace had Tony thrown out a window? Vincent is adamant it was because Tony had crossed a line massaging Mia Wallace’s feet. Round and round it goes, and a very serious discussion it is. Classic.

Only later, the one person who would know for sure Mia Wallace herself shows just how silly all the rumors are.

Looking forward to seeing the "full disclosure" statement at the end of each and every post from now on. - twoleftears
Oh man, sarcasm galore. ROFL
Going back a bit MC was always touting the benefits of SR products to the skies for anyone within ear shot. Right around the time he started touting Townsend products I remember a throw away line he had about Ted Denny being an enthusiastic DIYer and not in the same league as Townsend. I could be wrong (a quick search turned up nothing) but it really struck me at the time that he'd say something like that, which made me sit up and take notice. - nonoise

@nonoise this quote?
...Not like I shouldn’t have known better. I Met both Caelin Gabriel and Ted Denney around 1992, back when they were not that far from being DIY’ers themselves. So it is not so much that it can’t be done, as it is just astronomically unlikely... - millercarbon
