Hello all
First post here as I've just managed to find myself some ML's that are small enough to fit/work in my lounge, some Scenarios, very nice too.
I was struggling with the bass response, it was very heavy and boomy no matter where I placed the speakers. I'll say now that this is in our, (UK), lounge so any thoughts of having them 5 feet out in the room is a complete nonsense. I'd got them the best I could, being about 2 feet from the back wall, (to the panels), and nearly 7 feet apart and the mids/highs were lovely but the bass still not good. It was then that I thought I'd try some spikes instead of the flat button feet that were fitted and here I had another problem, I had some spikes in my man-drawer but they were M6, (like 99% of spikes here), and the Logans are of course 1/4 inch, aargh!!
Anyway, the M6 spikes would go in a couple of turns before jamming so I did manage to get them sitting on spikes which has lifted them about an extra inch off the floor and Hey-Presto! the bass is now deep and tight(ish).
I immediately started looking around for a set of the ETC spikes but I can't find any here and they are $200 from ML. I did find some here: http://save-on-audio.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=35_34&products_id=10813 for $130 and have been trying to phone for several days, (at different times), but keep getting the answer machine. Does anyone know these people and why I can't contact them? Any help appreciated especially if you know anywhere else that I can get a set of these. Thanks very much.
