Hi,
I was wondering if you replaced the rubber feet under M60? The supplied spike with M60 won't help. I have tile floor and rubber feet does not stay still. I light push the speaker and it's shaking like hurricane. So i'm looking for good spike with protection disc. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

thanks.

Interesting, are you running your speakers on large setting, seems weird that they would be "shaking like a hurricane"?

Sounds to me like the feet or the floor may not be level.

He is rocking it and finding they move.

It does sound like the floor tiles are not even/level to each other, not many usually are. I think you may need to add some shims under one or more of the feet to even it out.

Gentlemen,

The solution to this predicament is obvious. Audiofan needs to upgrade to M80s which are heavier \:D .

The simple and ( I thought..) obvious solution is to adjust the feet by unscrewing one or more to make the speaker sit level and even on all corners.

The rubber feet are not adjustable like the spikes. I guess he could try the spikes and adjust them accordingly, then use the rubber feet under the spikes to protect the tiles.

Just thought about my statement I guess you could put washers in between the speeker and the rubber feet to make them adjustable.

If it sever enough, perhaps a building a larger wooden base might be in need.
