I haven’t compared to those but I have some IsoAcoustics Apertas under my KEF LS50 Wireless in my man cave setup. Excellent stands that helped clean things up a bit.jhills, excellent advice that I’m taking. I have so much stuff already to play aro... 
Opinions needed on some Klipsch for 2 channel
Look for some used Fortes. The new IIIs look nice and the reviews are good but pricey @ $3600ish.

Anybody try the SVS Soundpath feet under their floorstanders?https://www.amazon.com/SVS-SoundPath-Subwoofer-Isolation-System/dp/B00NCSQ5GK/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_produc...I have them under my HSU sub and definitely noticed an improvement.

Thanks again audiosens,I’m going to try my 70 duro 2.5" diameter x .25" thick sorbothane discs too and see how it matches up with the Vibrapods. I agree with elizabeth too. There are so many variables it's best we try a bunch of stuff. Having some...

Thanks for the input geoffkait,I was wondering about Sorbothane, Vibrapods and the various Herbie’s offerings and what materials are being used? I have some 2.5" diameter x .25" high 70 duro sorbothane discs and I also have a bunch of various Vibr...

Thanks audiosens,I actually have a bunch of extra Vibrapods and Vibracones from another setup. I think mine are the thickest (strongest?) version so maybe they can support my KEF Reference Twos?

audiosens, when you say footers, what do you mean? The feet that came with your speakers?

Interesting about rolling without the spikes. I'm going that route at first too. Tagged to follow.

Thanks ricred,I'm really not looking to drop that much coin this setup. Trying to do this with $100ish and under stuff I already have or can easily get. If I step out over the sorbothane/granite, it will probably be for something from Herbies.

I appreciate the input kalali,Also, I can put sand in the plinths of my speakers. Overkill or not with the granite tile/sorbothane underneath and possible spikes under KEFs feet?

Thanks lowrider,That was my original plan, .25"-.5" sorbothane discs under the granite tile and the KEFs directly on top, maybe add the spikes to the KEFs feet. Where I lived before I had a solid, cement underneath carpet, floor and used the spike...

Thanks for the replies,Well I’ve got some various sizes of sorbothane. If I use that or the Herbies, do I put it under the granite tile between it and the floor or directly under the KEFs feet? Should I use spikes on the KEFs feet on top of the gr... 
Decent 6-8ft phono cable advice needed.
Thanks again for the advice everyone,It looks like I got the length needed down to 4ft so it sounds like I should be good there. I’m going to start with 4ft of BJ LC-1. I’ve got a ton of extra decent interconnects (AQ, Kimber, 8402, etc.) and I ca...
