Floor protectors

OK, Im sick of having 10p pieces under the spkr spikes.

Can anyone recommend any floor protectors (I have a wood laminate floor - no carpet).

Ive seen some efforts on ebay - but they all look a bit shite.

ta in advance //lamboy

 

Atacama spikeshoes, £25 for 8? I've got some here, never used on a wooden floor though so I can't give any comments on how (if at all) they affect the sound

 

Whoops, there it is.....http://www.hifi-plus.co.uk/bits.htm

 

What's wrong with pennies? Dip them in Coke or Ketchup to clean them and they look quite attractive. Plus they only cost 8 pence for 8

 

How much money are you lookin' to spend supporting those Zenons?

I have splashed out on FE Cerapucs for my Kryptons and they offer quite an improvement to spikes.

Soundcare Superspikes (as recommended by Martin Colloms) are a cheaper option:-

I think I need the special audiophile pennies, hopefully I can find some blessed by the queen mother and cuddled by Orville (the duck) - trouble is these would cost me at least 20p each! Sod that

I think I'll coat the ones I have in green (olive green mind) felt tip pen and mount them on a glass shelf (you know the one) - then all I have to do is wait for my jaw to drop.

Ok, I'll shut up now.

 

Hi Snoop - FE cerapucs.....I fear mucho grando squids are needed to procure these.

Can I ask how much/where from etc??? (pm if you want)

Hmmmmm they do look cool though

 

you could get some made, just polished ally or brass with a dimple. wouldnt cost much.

 

Lamboy,

The FE Cerapucs X 8 were 500 Euros (about £340) including shipping from Johan Grissen (The High-End broker) here:-

I bought a set of 4 X Cerabase feet from him for my equipment rack and was very impressed, so went back to him for the Cerapucs. Expensive, but oh, the quality of the engineering!

check parst express....they do something similar

 

check the web for Goldring Perfect sound discs. 8 for 12 quid a black steel disc with a dimple on top for a spike and neoprene base to stop slippage.

Enjoy.

 

Lamboy.made these at work. pm me if you want me to make you some.

 

Hi Andy,

They look very cool, I like the idea of some bespoke floor protectors. What is the white rubber?

I will PM you my details and lets sort out a deal.

The rubber is a high density polymer i think, but can find out if you want?
