bookshelf speakers on the floor
I spend a lot of the time on the floor (bad back) and read, listen, waste all the good remaining hours of the day like a lazy cat. I tried a pair of speakers on the floor, - before moving to a stand - and noticed that they sounded better than on a stand - to my ears. When I am on the floor, they sound even better. (Yes, there are a number of things wrong with me)
Is it OK for a bookshelf speaker to be on the floor? And if so, should I put something underneath? (Should I try putting it on my stomach? Just kidding!)
first I apologize for misplacing it. Can I change the category to speakers, still? @noromance "vibrating the floor" yes, I was worried about it. I will try the springs! it's hardwood floor so I am sure the wood would want to dance a little @ghdprentice I never heard of short stands. Ashamed to admit, decades ago, I used bricks @russ69 "try different heights" I stopped growing when I was 22 :) But I will check out those growth hormone pills |
Here's a link to their site that shows several ways to do it with bookshelf speakers. They cost a pretty penny since he uses local Amish talent and locally sourced maple for the stands but if you know a good local carpenter (or if you're handy with wood) you can do it for a lot cheaper. Good luck. All the best, |
