I don’t think you need spikes for this. I would use large rubber feet screwed in bottom. Circa 35mm dia round black rubber.
I would have though the Soundcare spikes with feet: spikes although I always ask myself why these things come in packs of 4. Surely you are guaranteed stability with 3 point contact, and adjusting for stable 4 point is harder?Another question, whats best to put on the base of the cabinet for contacting a stone tiled floor? Spikes?
Speakers that have four sides just don’t lend themselves to 3 spikes. It tips fo the side - diagonally easier with 3.
You can mount the three points outboard. I think the diagonal tipping is theoretical. In terms of small input stability, I'd expect three points to be better.Speakers that have four sides just don’t lend themselves to 3 spikes. It tips fo the side - diagonally easier with 3.
Maybe if you have a large dog or rampaging toddler there is a risk, but they are generally somewhat incompatible with stand or floor-mounted speakers anyway.
Thanks, I was thinking something like wide rubber feet might work better...I don’t think you need spikes for this. I would use large rubber feet screwed in bottom. Circa 35mm dia round black rubber.
I noticed that there are two versions of the 10F driver:

The TC9FD seems to be more related to the non-G version.

The best place for premium wool underlay is beneath aristocratic carpets. I used Swaledale wool carpet underlay when I built some double PA130 XKIs. Good stuff but melamine foam is surely better? Cheaper, better performance and no worries abour moths. Currently listening to some Karlsonators with melamine and they sound great.
I never even knew there was a ferrite magnet 8424 (non-G) version. This looks like a completely different driver, as Qts, Fs, and sensitivity are very different. If even has 3 screw holes on the bezel vs 4. Sort of like a black fiberglass version of TC9. I actually have a black fiberglass version of the TC9 from Peerless India. I forget the model number.I noticed that there are two versions of the 10F driver:

I have a few of these marked 10f/8422-03. They were a run for Japan's Stereo Magazine, who bundled them with an issue with box plans.
Basically a surface-mount version of the TC9, but w/a poly cone.
I have not seen the relevant issue, but have been told there was a contour filter(probably w/bsc).

I think they were black fiberglass cones but with an aqua blue colored bezel. I recall Vunce got those for his TL speakers with the RS225. However, lately he has been using the Tangband W8 coax in the same TL.
The TB W6 and W8 are quite nice, but not easy to dial in the XO between the woofer and the tweeter of the coax.
It's not as simple as adding a cap on the tweet!

Not it’s not which is why I designed a XO for it back on post 3907.The TB W6 and W8 are quite nice, but not easy to dial in the XO between the woofer and the tweeter of the coax.

The coax allowed a nice time alignment almost transient perfect like right triangle step response:
(Mic is inverted)
The W6 is still available at P-E.
Haven't tried to put them in a TL.
They are my temporary setup right now.
I have no listening room, no space to really enjoy them.
But, they are mounted in small sealed boxes and supported by subs.
The imaging is amazing.
I hope I can give them a proper setup some day.
Or I'll have to send them to a new home.
Also made my series XO for them, and dang... I like how they sound.

Too bad those coaxials are unobtanium now. 😩
Unless you want to pay $700-pair from a guy in Lithuania.
In Italy are a little cheaper - less than 240€ without VAT
