There are conflictig theories regarding Speaker Stand design and use. In thisthread we would like to capture of of thema nd how they impact actual performance that we can all hear.
Do we want coupling between the standmount and stand or not? How do we achieve that? Why it works for some speakers with no coupling between stand and speaker while for others strong coupling (thorugh tape or bolt) is recommended? How does this impact Bass performance of a speaker and why?
Do we want strong coupling between stand and ground or not? What kind of coupling is achived with spikes at the bottom? Is that good for wooden floors as well as concrete floors?
How heavy should the speaker stand be? How and why does it impactr Bass performance of a speaker?
