Heavy difficult to move speakers- how do you deal?


I have a tough decision. I have speakers with built-in casters and move around quite easily. But I’m thinking about buying new speakers that have spikes and discs and weigh 120 pounds each.

Has anybody figured out a way to make life easier should you want to move a speaker around your home or even a couple feet from where they currently are?

+1 Furniture sliders with adhesive attached to the bottom of the discs holding the spikes. This has made it easy to adjust the position of my 100+ pound towers.

Really terrific ideas.

Speaks to a serious need for speaker manufactures to consider what people are having to go through and offer solutions in line with how they've created their speaker feet.

 

Townshend Audio Seismic Podiums do an amazing job of cutting the transmission of vibration between speakers, floor and your system. Difference in my system compared to casters was startling (200+ lb speakers).

Because the isolating springs are in housings above the rubber feet you can put sliders under the feet with no harm to sound quality.

I have a pair of Paragon Acoustics Regents. I am not sure how much they weigh. I have heard 150lbs, to 185lbs. These are lead lined and very heavy. I move mine with a cloth covering them with a furniture dolly for more than 10ft. I use furniture sliders for less than 10ft.
