The bumpers have a rather mild adhesive on them. I don't see myself ever not using them, but I wouldn't worry about removing them. If anything a little goo remover might be needed. Also they go on the back side of the speaker, not a commonly seen part.
cool, i meant the bottom L & R of the back. also another question thought is that you need the bumpers so that you can get your cable behind the speaker to connect into the jacks. are the binding post indented enough (working with the way the bracket is designed and the bumpers) so that banana plugs will connect without hitting the wall? i notice on some bi & di-pole speakers that folks complain about not having the ability to attach banana plugs to them without them hitting the wall. again, that where i figure the bumpers come in to act as spacers giving you that extra bit of cushion of space for banana plugs and cable to fit behind the speaker without it actually resting on them.
did that make sense?
