Speaker spikes
Got round to fitting some to the mini-stands for the Glendales in my 2nd system today.
Previously, the foot of each speaker stand had simply been planted directly on the tiled concrete floor.
With the spikes installed, I'm suprised at the difference I'm hearing. OK, not a quantum leap, but I'm saying "noticably less smudgy". I've experienced a similar effect with spikes and flooring factors before, so reassuring to feel a pattern being established...
Also, I was fussy and went for silver coloured ones to echo the silver surrounds of the drivers, so I'm happier with the look too.
The old 2nd system is coming on quite nicely...
