    On the subject of tri-pods . I've always thought that they where quite stable ? I'm sure that in my many hours of watching discovery channel , etc , i've seen that multi legged animals always have three legs in contact at any one time, even things like millipedes with hundreds of legs operate them all in groups of threeso good old mother nature thinks that tri-pods are good based on millions of years of evolution....

    Anex - how small are wheel chair inner tubes? I would be interested to know how you fit three of them under a speaker plinth and keep them there.

    Make the plinth slightly larger than the speaker footprint. The tubes are small, sorry I should have said mobility scooter etc. They're on the electric type wheel chairs, only little things. Else use two, one front one rear. Depends on speaker size etc.
