I say "basically" because according to Magico the spike is attached using Lok-tite (I'm guessing the ugly Red Stuff) and would probably require the application of heat, prying and twisting in a vice to remove the damn thing ultimately resulting in a trashed outrigger at the minimum After a few mins of cursing and attempting to man handle the Spike and Knob I gave up and ended using the Stillpoints in another part of my system instead. I requested a price on a set of Outriggers without the Spike installed after speaking to someone on the phone about this issue (who didn’t sound thrilled with what I was attempting to do...with MY speaker). Still haven’t heard anything back and wont be holding my breath for that call So I guess all wasn’t lost in the end but a very annoying outcome nonetheless. I wonder if the outcome would have been different if I called and said I was looking to install one of Magico's new fancy flavour of feet $$$$ they offer
I tried to do the same on my S1 too. One way is to remove all four legs or the outriggers completely. Yes the spikes and nuts
Cannot be removed from outriggers.
