[gafhenderson]

does anyone know of some elegant solutions to lift a speaker by only approx 10cm?

thanks.

use a concrete brick... also dampens acoustic coupling

Hockey pucks, naturally.

Maybe a couple of concrete/cement walkway tiles, bonded with construction adhesive with a wood frame around them to make it a bit more attractive. You could use large rubber or felt feet underneath, or spikes if that's your thing.

Seems like this would be a function of both the speaker's and room decor's style.

Dear Mr. GM,

What if your Bondo'd speakers and room decor has remained static. I originally decorated in "Early Bad Taste" and can't think of a thing I can change that would match my budget!

I guess that that is a function which includes weight, materials and forces associated ( power applied to the woofer which is the major origin of vibrations > woofer's basket )

No need to fix what ain't broke! 'Early bad taste' allows max selection flexibility. Google Jeff Foxworthy's ways to tell if you're a redneck to see myriad 'el cheapo' examples to choose from. There's bound to be something you can afford .

Dear Mr. GM

Jeff Foxworthy is considered "the" Guru of the Early Bad Taste Interior Decor Movement! For those just getting started, I would certainly recommend the use of 1989 Dodge Caravan bench seats for one's Stereo/Home Theater Room. Ultimate Comfort and very stylish as well! That's the trick, you really don't have to be a Multi-Gazillionaire to live like one!

Yeah, he's really something! Never met him personally, but 'knew' him as the 'the voice' that announced sales, etc., at the local Kroger? [grocery store] we shopped at when he was a teen. The first time we saw him at the Punchline [local comedy spot], we recognized his voice immediately! Later we learned he had also painted the [very well done] sales on windows etc.. He could have been a sign painter if he wasn't so @#$% funny!

Hi Greg,

My wife gets an even bigger kick out of him than I do. He's certainly a very talented individual!

Valve springs?

 

[GM]

Don't know of any that are >10 cm long. Old bed springs maybe?

Hmmm...now where have I seen that before?

I've seen those drivers before! I hope you were able to get all the saw-dust off of them from our last experiment!
