I have 4 speakers in my apartment.


I would like to minimize the vibration transmitted to the floor.


Right now, they are sitting on towels.


Look for those "on the cheap" ideas. :-)

I would do a little experiment first.
Send a friend to the apartment below,with a phone.
Then pick up the speaker(s) off the floor, and check by phone if
that makes any difference.Repeat until sure of the outcome.
If no reduction, isolation from the floor wont do anything.
But if it works well,get a nice 2 inch slab of stiff foamrubber, and put
that under the speaker.


The apartment below me is empty.

Thought of asking the manager to let me test different volume levels
to see what can be heard
on the bottom floor.
