Well obviously I'm not smart enough to understand how the rubber feet were supposed to work then!
So how then did you attach the rubber feet? I still don't get it.
The rubber feet that came with my Axiom's were sort of U shaped. Like little rubber shot-glasses. There was no hole in the middle to run the screws through, nor did it have any recessed space on the bottom. If I had pierced the bottom of the 'U' with the screw and driven the screw through it, then there would have been either an exposed screw head on the wood floor, or if I had kept tightening it the screw would have ripped through the rubber foot entirely, which didn't seem right. So is the bottom part of the foot bowed upwards to make like a little dome against the floor, with the screw head at the top?
When I was using the rubber feet, I had the screws screwed into the bottom of the M80's, and the 'U' part of the rubber feet just sort of centered on the screw head (the exposed head fitting into the top of the 'U'). No real connection, just resting on the feet. That's what I didn't like/understand about using them. That was the only way I saw to use them.
How are the feet held on to the speaker?
I will have to dig the rubber feet back out tonight and take another look. Though I prefer the way the spikes look anyway.
