Planet10,You’ll likely be the 1st. I have a set awiating drivers, i am going to start with the stuffing we used for the A7.3

What do you expect from the 7ms compared to the 7.3, considering the bass response?
Have you e-mailed him at the planet10-hifi dot com address?
Of course. There are two listed on the site to circumvent any Spam issues. Used both.
Is Planet10 still doing online business? I’ve sent a couple of emails recently and had no response.
I am officially semiretired and a lot slower, plus we have been snowed in which has skewed things (rehab takes more time in the snow, aand unlike most of the rest of Canada, don’t usually get snow). I have a number of emails i have yet to get to answering. Paience please.

Hello again,
They are finally put together . I'm going to wait with the finish until I've tested them, too hyped to wait any longer. Also, if something is off and I can remove or add stuffing etc.
At the moment I don't have anything to put them on. I started googling about "spikes" and it seems to be kind of controversial subjects. Half of the people say it is snakeoil, other half says its not.
So, what should I get? Some rubber pads, some super expensive spikes (I personally don't feel like they will make a huge difference other than perhaps look good) or something else?
Best regards,
Fredrik

If you wish to try a set of spikes, but do not want to spend lots of money, I have a DIY suggestion to offer.
Purchase a package of Arrow tip inserts, and a package of "bullet point" or "field point" arrow points. You can construct some "outriggers" to mount them in if you don't wish to bore holes in your new cabinets to test them.
I searched out a few links on Amazon, but the bits should be available in any store local to you that specializes in Archery.
Simply bore the correct diameter hole for the inserts, and glue in place, when the glue has set screw in the arrow tips.
I don't have a diagram but will share a couple links, I think the idea should be obvious from there...
Inserts:
Amazon.com : .246 Diameter Standard Carbon Arrow Inserts (12 Pc. Pack) 8/32 Threads Fits Carbon Arrows With .246" ID : Sports & Outdoors
Bullet point tips:
Amazon.com : Bowcore Premium Stainless Steel Archery Target Field Points: Screw in Bullet or Combo Field Point for Multiple Arrow Sizes - 1 Dozen : Gateway
Field point tips:

If you're going the spikes route on a wooden floor (as mightym suggests) I would strongly recommend the addition of some discs/feet to keep from having dents in your floor while you figure out the best location for your speakers.
Here's some examples: Amazon.com: Speaker Spike discs

I like the Sonic Design feet from HifiKit.se. They are not really visible against a wooden floor and don't risk any scratching.

...”spikes”...
We use felt pads. Even on the spikes, we remove the point and put a felt-pad on it.
Spikes can be devastating to your hardwood floor or rug.

Squash-balls cut in half are a low cost option
Tennis balls work too.
