So we put a structure underneath it.
Isolate speakers from floor.
Maybe you hate the way audio speaker stands look.
A large mass under the speakers to which the speakers are spiked will stabilise the speakers and reduce movement of the cabinet caused by driver movement.
If you then need to isolate the speaker mass system from the floor some very soft springing thin soft rubber foam or a type of air suspension under the mass.
And if we make this a diaphragmatic absorber we also can locate pressure.
Here s why you might want to reconsider.
I ve read a lot about floor standing speaker interaction with the floor and whether or not isolation or coupling might be the right approach depending on the type of floor e g concrete suspending wood floor etc.
This elevates it let s say 12 inches off the floor.
We have to isolate from the floor with our speaker cabinet correct.
Or maybe you re going for a college chic aesthetic with everything from your mattress to your tv on the floor.
However far better results can be obtained by removing the speakers away from the table top completely and mounting them properly on solid heavy stands placed directly on the floor.
Auralex mopads can be used to isolate monitors placed on a desktop but heavy duty floor stands are best of all.
Maybe you re scared your pets child will knock them down and damage your precious speakers.
