Speakers slipping on speaker stands

If you don't want to use blu tack, you can use cabinet door bumpers. The clear ones, they are about 1/8" and have adhesive that you can apply to the stand. When it comes time to remove them, they just pop off without leaving damage. I prefer these to blu tack because they provide a flat surface for the speakers to sit on, and they are cleaner when you remove them.

First of all, are your speakers moving because they're not level?

If they are level, and you can bolt them down, here's what I'm doing with mine. I have them spiked to the stand using Audiopoints and their corresponding discs. It tightens up everthing a lot. I then went out and bought longer bolts, and just barely seated them. This way if they are going to move, it's not going to be very much, and they won't come off of the stand.

Another option might be weatherstripping. You have the choices of different thicknesses and densities. I've used it for years.

Grip It shelf liner would work great for this. This is a link to an E-Bay auction so you have an idea of what it is, but you can find it at many grocery stores, Target, Walmart, etc., and it comes in several colors. It just lies on the flat surface without adhesive, and it's rubberized so it prevents slipping.

A little unsightly, but here in shaky California a must:

I use black bungie straps from the top of the speakers to under the stand's platform to hold down my speakers to their stands.
