Speaker spike feet?

WTF HAPPENED. I just spent 30 minutes writting a post and it vanished before I was done. I'll make this fast. Bought a pair of Bryston A2's. Have them in my basement cave and kept the rubber feet on. I just put the spikes that came with them and WOW, a huge improvement. I have an indoor/outdoor carpeting over concrete, what a change in sound. I have learned so much from you all in the last year. My first system was purchased in 1974. Bought a pair of Infinity Kappa 8's 20 years ago. Recently took my 1974 Thorens TD 160 in for a $300.00 facelift. Salvaged about 75 of my 300 albums. Had a Adcom 555 II amp I had to buy to replace my old Pioneer 939 for more power. Since then replaced that along with my preamp, 25 year old Technics CD player. Bought a Isotek to fix the lousy electrical service here in Wisconsin. New $100.00 power cords and don't laugh, when I hooked up the new speakers I realized that I followed the instructions in the Infinity Manuel and used electrical lamp cord. As I'm financially handicapped I believe I have one great system. The new speaker Audioquest wire even has an arrow to indicate the flow of direction. Thank you all again, and please don't look down on me as not being in the same class. My circle of friends say the new system sounds great but what do they know as sound from a sea shell is good enough for them. And I would like to thank the member from Milwaukee that was helping me out months ago but when I took him up on his offer to come listen to his $50,000 system I never heard back. I understand, you don't know me, why invite a stranger into your house and risk a low life ripping you off. Thanks again you all. We all had to start somewhere, my start was in the 60's with a 3" square battery powered A M radio. I believe FM was just a dream. A shout out to WZMF radio here in Milwaukee, they were one of the first FM stations and broadcasted from a house in Menomonie Falls and played so much of the overseas Prog before it was even called that.

Paragraphs please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should try Faulkner...........

I have a pair of Aerial 7s (the model just prior to yours) and I used these since I managed to score an excellent deal on pricing (way back when):

Differences were subtle but there. Mostly in cleaning up the midrange a touch; slightly more detail.

Worth it for me because I got them for cheap however one should expect diminishing returns.

Note they are a PAIN to move, so try to get the speakers set in position PRIOR to using the spikes (Aerials are relatively heavy!)

Good Luck & Happy Listening!

deecee is correct. You would definitely notice the difference between ordinary spikes and these brass ones from Starsound, but of bourse, there is a considerable price difference.
