G, with your continued support and positivity at least my expectations are low.

I am using the Ultra's to replace the spikes, not the diode. If it replaced the diode it would be too low to the ground as the Ultra's are not tall enough. this to me is the most practicle way to use them, no wonder you had no benefits.

Yes on thick carpet on a concrete slab - foam pad ??. The carpet is in the entire room. nice to see you looking.
At 435lbs per speaker the interface with the floor is about as solid as it will be on carpet over concrete. Multiple levels of stacked bearings that convert vibration into unwanted energy dissipated, so what it is sitting on is not the be all and end all as almost all of the work is done with the bearings in theory.

As I have said previously, if they do not work they will go back under my components so ZERO waste of money. In fact I save $$ as I don't have to buy more for my components. Hell if you can't spend some effort with our hobby, why bother.

proof will be in the listening
