It has come to my attention that in some hifi forum (not in here) someone mentioned that by putting something heavy on top of the speakers could improve sound quality
. I wonder if there are justifications and scientific backing up theory to it?
With the above in mind I have an idea of placing a kitchen granite (say from TESCO or some supermarket costing £10 or so) on top of the speaker and insert in between the speaker top and the granite a sorbothane sheet to damp out any wall vibrations. In theory it should absorb some of the case vibrations and should impove the sound stage but I have no idea on its effect towards bass or highs? That is only a theory and I wonder if anyone has any experience with such arrangement ? Using a granite on top of the speaker should not look ugly
