The speakers I am working on are tall and skinny.
I need some extra stability for just in case reasons. Where on earth can I get a set of decent short extension legs to add the needed stability to a tall tower?
Being able to adjust the rear height to tilt the towers would be a nice added extra/bonus.
I'm in Oz so local would be great due to the hindrance of International shopping at the moment

Moondog, i still have some aluminum bars made for FH3 (and FHXL and more) that are threaded for the PE feet (we tend to use felt pads).
Much simplier and elegant than the ones pictured above (may use the same cones).

Post to Oz probably not to to bad.
We also often used strips of plywood. You can see (black) AL ones on the FH3 (middle sized ones) and plywood ones on the FH-Lite. I am out of black (powder coated)

Think of something like this, an anti vibration mount, you can adjust it as well for height, so as to level the speakers..
Suitable for small fridges and up to large machines in different sizes.
You can use aluminum, plywood, wood, fiber reinforced sections, and so on as the cross members.
Steel may be too resonant.
Generic image off the net, no ties to seller.
This may be available in Oz, so international shipment may not be an issue.
It does look a bit ....industrial.
Provided, of course, Dave does not have what you need.
Dave your file link shows as full of spyware/trojans according to Kaspersky.
Interested tho depending on price and shipping costs

My last shipment from the USA to Australia cost over $100- USPS cost is ridiculous lately
Almost doubled in 3 years
You can find the Dayton Audio OA4 local but not the OS-2.

VERY unlikely that are they right.

I just guessed the weight. Cheapest is small packet air, surface no longer available. $85 CAD, more than the bits cost.

Kaspersky has some problems with digital certificates.
Yes postage costs outweigh the value of many items
I'll use timber and what adjustable feet are available locally and paint to match the cabinets I guess

Hi Dave,
Am I right saying that even if in the drawing it is declared that dimensions are in millimeters, they are in inches?
Are those optimal for both Silbury and FHXL?
Thanks
Most drawings are done in mm, the Imperial dims are converted by the CAD software. There are a few ¾” drawings.

Large gate hinges are another option. Combined with some feet like in post #4 and acorn nuts to top off
