I too have been considering this. I am using a pair of Snell B minors in one room that are on the hard wood floor. In the other room I have a pair of Montanas that are on the wood floor. Neither pair are currently spiked. The Montanas have the cast iron platforms.
When I attended the Capital Audiofest the guy from Mapleshade was saying I should be spiking the speakers and placing them on their wood platforms and place the platform on the rubber squares.He even went as far as to say I should remove the sttel platforms from the Montanas, said I would get way better sound and bass. Not keen on spending the $1000 for platforms and spikes and rubber squares. Thought I might try the maple platforms from Dawnsplatforms. Any body try them? The rubber squares aren't too salty from mapleshade.
