If you end up building a base, check out butcher block acoustics. They sell some very solid maple blocks that you could use as a starting point.
Speakers On Wheels?
Hi All,
Unfortunately I have to move again and the best I could do, is a large studio space on the fourth floor of a 1930’s era building in a sketchy part of town. This should dispel any notion that all audiophiles are wealthy. The most difficult part of this move will be to get Quad 2905 ESL’s up four flights of stairs without banging them around. I was thinking that I would really like to put the Quads on wheels when they’re in the apartment, so that I could back them up against the wall when not using them and then bring them forward and into place when I want to listen to them. It’s of course important that I mark where the speakers need to be when it’s listening time. Also, I may choose to add a large floor rug so that in itself presents another logistical challenge. Any ideas or recommendations in order to make my life somewhat easier is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Sorry I totally forgot to add that I have four cones threaded into the bottom of my Quads and they sit in titanium disks. They sound better this way than any other option. So I was thinking of a way I might be able to use this same setup but on a dolly of sorts. I would just prefer to make it a little more stylish than a dolly used for utilitarian functions. Also, a dolly that could absorb vibrations although that’s what the titanium disks are for. @erik_squires My entire stereo does take up a lot of space however I can make it work either way. I’m dealing with close to a thousand square feet. Selling what I have for a smaller stereo is certainly out of the question. |
