In Reply to: Re: Should a subwoofer be on a stand? posted by gialitt on January 15, 2001 at 09:28:38:
I did the meter work, and the sub seems to (finally) be in a good location. It's currently connected with Wireworld Terra, which sounds pretty good, though it's the only sub cable I've tried. Opinions on this cable would be welcomed.This sub will not accept spikes. It has 4 plastic feet. The tweak I read about suggested attaching spikes to an MDF platform, then put the sub on top of it with some Blue Tack to help anchor it. It's a cheap thing to try, so I may give it a go unless someone here has had bad luck with this tweak. Opinions?
Follow Ups:
yes, mine had little rubber feet as well. especially if it is not under warranty, you can remove the oem feet and put garden variety steel spikes in the same holes. if you even want to put the original feet back on later, a little wood filler and sprig of touch up paint for the tiny holes are all that's needed. if you are on carpet i think you will like the spikes, as i did not expect much difference but there was. of course this is just my experience. and btw, lovan does have a stand (model 600 i think) made for subwoofers that do not need reinforcement ...a good tweak is to look inside; mine had a token amount of acoustic fiberfill; i used 3m spray adhesive to line all surfaces with ratshack insulation and together with the loose oem filler it tighten things up remarkably - really improved both movie and music settings, helping get rid of resonances and is therefore harder to identify location of subterranean output :-) shile i was inside i used contact enhancer on all connections and put sound coat on output transistors and such.
have since removed all of that filler and replaced with delfex panels from parts connection: another huge improvement. there is no need to buy another sub to add to or replace this one in forseeable future
