Congratulations on the MBL’s. I currently have the 116’s and 126’s. Did the shippers manage to tilt the boxes past 30 degrees?

Update on dialing in my MBL101E speakers.

Instead of using the factory supplied spikes or trying expensive aftermarket footers, I completely removed the entire factory footer assemble (spikes and brass coupling), and place speakers directly to my Symposium Ultra platforms.
I also pulled the speakers out further from front wall to 52" (center tweeter), no toe-in.
Results were firmer bass and great vocal center imaging.
Minor adjustments will also be a lot easier since the Symposium platforms slide easily on the carpet.

Of course the biggest improvement was adding the REL212SE subwoofer!

Gregg, congrats!
Wonderful.
And yes, adding that REL beast surely improves things even further.
