link between speaker and floor


I have used the spikes that came with my B&W n803 speakers, into tne carpet. Now we are changing over to solid laminate floors, so spikes are out. What is the best way to couple the speakker to the floor?

I don't know what you mean by best, but spikes + discs have worked well for me.
You can still use your spikes, just put some pucks under them. Audiogon member esoler makes some stainless or brass pucks for about $5 ea. I have found they even improve the sound. Cheers! John
When I moved my system to a beautiful black ceramic tile floor, I used 1/2 inch Walker Discs under all the spikes... no spike holes or scratches.
What also might work well is if you place a 12x12 1/2-inch thick or larger stone tile under the speakers and spike 'em to the tile. Gives a good solid foundation. Worked very well for me.
