各位,

關於三腳/四腳的問題:

在幾何學初階,我們可以找到《一點可以定位;二點可以定一直線;三點可以定一平面;四點可以定一立體。》所以要從不平坦的地面上，任何位置都放穩揚聲器,而又不必調校,就必須用三枚釘。攝影、測量、登月太空船.....都用三腳的。

揚聲器的箱底，面積一般都比較細小，裝三隻腳，很容易被用家碰跌，加一塊比較大的基座，裝三隻腳，當然可以解決問題，但成本將會增加！為了節省成本，賺多些，廠商用四枚釘的方法。這樣,用家就要在每次移位之後，試試四枚釘哪枚最鬆，調到四枚一樣鬆緊，便可以了。

三枚釘是科學方法，四枚釘是折衷方法。

揚聲器之中 MT-1 是好聲的，又是苗條的。它的尺寸是7"闊，10"深，38"高 (連釘腳)。釘四隻，橫距祗得5"，直距8"，好像一位穿了高跟鞋的美女！我曾經看到這位美女在尖沙咀代理處，被人推到，外表上傷了膊頭，可惜！
我的靚聲美女，也幾乎被我推到。終於我替她換了大頭鞋，她站得穩定了,喉底也厚了。哈哈！

Anyone using TAOC TITE 25A spike disc? Why is it so expensive compare to other TAOC spike disc?

I want to understand more about the function for 喇叭釘. If it's mainly for absorbing the vibration, can we simply use plastic footer to absort vibration? There must be some reason. Pls kindly explain.

Also, some people place a piece of "brick" or metal coin under each 喇叭釘. What is the function of that? Stronger bass?

Thanks.

喇叭釘 are for sound tuning. Using different material of 喇叭釘 will cause different vibration effect and thus varies the sonic effect. Some may find the base more tight or extension in high is more extended ....
You really need time to listen and in other words - trial and error. To my experience, no particular brand name is superior than others. The material should match your speaker stand and speakers.

A speaker spike has a tip so that all the weight can be on it (for example, if your speaker is 10 kg, and the base dimension is 10 in x 10 in, so that the pressure onto the ground is 0.1 kg/sq in, but if it has 4 spikes/tips which each has an area of 0.01 sq inch, then the pressure on each tip is then 250 kg/sq inch). This would help the speaker stablize and minimize vibrations. 腳聚千斤, 馬步自然係穩.

Thanks, Petery and Kenny,

Is there any general rule about 釘腳 to follow? Such as what material will improve bass, what improve treble, what improve soundstage, etc? Pls kindly

我對喇叭之下是地櫃(可憐)，所以放了塊三寸厚的麻石在喇叭之下，下面再加釘。大家認為釘應放在喇叭和麻石之間？還是麻石與地櫃之間？還有，釘應向上還是向下？若向下會不會大多震動傳落地櫃，引地共鳴？

push..

Spike/Spike plate would improve your speaker's cabinet resonance so whether it improves the bass or treble depends on your speaker. But in general, it would improve bass and make it tighter (image a singer if she/he sings better on a moving bus or solid ground). Best is you read your speaker manual and see what the manufacturer recommends. For example, if yours is a bookshelf speaker, they would recommends a solid stand + blutack. Another benefit is spike/spike plate can add 4 inches of height to the speaker, which may improve imaging.

Kenny, thanks. how about floor standing speakers? What should we put under the spike (i.e. between the spike, which attached to the bottom of speaker, and the floor)? I saw someone use coin and some use 麻石 ? What's the difference? Thanks.

If your speaker is made for spikes, ie, it has screw holes, then you should use spikes + spike plates like the ones from Taoc. If yours does not have screw holes, then a mable stone is recommended. You should get some carpet underlay materials on the floor 1st, then put your mable stone piece on top, then speaker on top. Coins, or sauce disc, or many other things are not as effective as mable stone, and they can vibrate which produces sound of its own. Of course you can get some exotic hard woods like the Japanese does, but they may be more expensive than your speakers.

Kenny,
My speakers have screw holes already and are come with some spikes. Should I use those original spikes or buy new ones?
Also, where can I find the Taoc spike plate? Do you have any recommendation for spike plate for limited budget (several hundred for 2 speakers). What should I note when buying spike plates? Many many thanks.
