Other feats (feets?)





With the advent of the spikes and Tiptoes came other methods of coupling/isolating components. Sorbothane   became somewhat common with companies like Audioquest, and a myriad of options appeared. The Q foot, Big Feet, Discwasher Footers, and Vibapods, to name a few. Some people were setting their speakers on cinder blocks, all kinds of tweeks were born. A more elaborate measure would be the isolation bases, shelves that were placed under a component to ward off all sorts of bad karma. Bright Star, Black Diamond Racing, and numerous other companies charged as much or more than you would pay for an actual component!
