Auralex subdude

I ordered the Subdudes, placed them under my Tekton Pendragons (full range) and thought "oh yaaa". What I had thought was really good became soo, soooo much better. This could go on forever but really, it's only about the basics of good sound. And these basic platforms deliver.

What did the subdudes do for you sound? I am a great tweaker at heart and have enjoyed spiking weighting damping mounting my equipment and to be prefectly honest never really analyzed the effect it had on the sound . I just took everyone elses expected outcomes and assumed I would get the same. The only thing I really noticed was when I sucked the life out of my speakers by over damping their stands and weighted tops. I have no axe to grind on either side just curios, I almost bought those Subdudes myself.

SubDudes don't do much for the speaker itself as much as they prevent compliant wood floors from contributing to the sound.

I've been using SubDudes for years with a pair of Velodyne HGS-15s controlled by an SMS-1 bass manager. In my application, the SubDudes eliminated a boominess and let extended LF be appreciated. That may have been before I installed the SMS-1, I just don't recall, but now both are in use, there is no boominess, and I'm not going to try the setup without the SubDudes, because the HGS-15s are very heavy. I'm leaving well enough alone.
