Audio Points between monitor and stand?

Speakers are EgglestonWorks Fontaines. The originals, which are two-piece: monitor and stand bolted together. I am curious about small brass feet/spikes which drain vibrations from audio gear (Audio Points from Star Sound Technologies) placed between the monitors and stands. (I’ve witnessed their products in action on another’s system, though different application – thus my positive interest. ) Star Sound recommends me placing three of their small points (approximate diameter = one dime; height = three dimes) between my monitors and their stands.

1. Has anyone done this with Audio Points or other product on their Fontaines or other speaker/stand combo?

2. Any reason why I should not try this with my specific speakers?

Thank you

The Star Sound Technologies SP101 speaker platforms trasformed the performance of my floorstanding speakers. I would give it a try.

Thank you for your reply Roxy54. I've heard the SP101 in action on a friend's speakers - remarkable. They are my long term goal to afford. But in the mean time, Robert suggested the tiny points between monitors and stands. My concern is that the monitors already fit tightly on the stands with no gap whatsoever. The stands are considered "integrated" with the monitors and are useful with bass extension. My concern is, by inserting points (effectively spacers), will I lose the stands' integration effectiveness?

I have Carravelle speakers,the stands were made with Star Sound points.I have
several of the small threadless points and disc.I am not using at the moment,If
you would like to try them and send them back in a month or so,let me

problem.They have made a positive diff in what ever I have used them with.Ray
