Sub stand?

I doubt you would ever find these at a standard hardware store. They are definitely worth going out of your way to find. There is a specific "Small" DH Cone size. Were you able to see my photo at AA? My cones are older and of a different color than the current model. These I believe sell for $20 per set of three. I paid about $45 per 3 pc set for the Timkens, so it will cost you approximately $65 for one set under your subwoofer.

Please let me know how these work out for you in this application if you give it a go. If they don't work there I am pretty sure you will find a component that will benefit from their use. In fact I am pretty sure that the more of these that find their way into your system, the better your system will sound. One thing I am positive about is the Timkens under floor standing loudspeakers are quite effective. I also have a set between my DAC and transport which has proveen to be an effective location.

Alright on the DH Cones I can get those easy. Im just looking for those bearings. Im going to have to call around.

Wellfed, I haven't tried any bearings under my stuff, but it sounds like a cool idea.

From what I can gather, it makes a multi-point solid coupling to the speaker base(with each ball in the bearing making a coupling point, in a circular arrangement).

What happens if there is a carpeted room? I imagine that you'd need some kind of point under it for this use.

Tom, my setup is on oak flooring. I posted a fuzzy photo of the assembly at AA, the link is shown above. You might have to right-click on the photo holder and choose view image.

They were downright frustrating for me initially as I was trying to use them in conjunction with Machina Dynamica Promethean bases. I have since found out that anything that resonates is not compatible as part of the Promethean assembly. One could see their huge potential, but there were too many drawbacks.

Used simply under my loudspeakers they work quite well. I do not find them to be linear, but they sound so good I am willing to accept some drawbacks. They are perhaps too smooth, but inserting the small DH Cones returned some of the "snap".

These unusual footers were brought to my attention by Ric Cummins at Rosinante.
