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?

On most our heavy speakers castors are built into the stands, one you have the desired location, spikes on outriggers lift the speaker off the castors.  https://pbnaudio.com/mr-777/

Happy Listening

I have my speakers on Gaia one’s.  They are on a 20”x22” piece of granite.  Under the granite, I have four furniture sliders. With a bit of umph, I can do any adjustments I need to.

All the best.

I just got my Von schweikert Endeavour. While only 85 lbs each (slightly less than a ton) they are difficult to move because of their shape. Just hard to grasp. I like the Masonite idea as I can leave custom footers in place and still adjust placement.
