kl1688 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Has anyone added spikes to the Klipsch R-115SW? If so which ones? Don't want to drill into them, would the screw holes already at the bottom work? Would the Dayton Audio DSS3-BK work?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 There's screw holes already in the bottom ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kl1688 Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Yes, under the rubber feet. They hold the floor panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I've got 2 115sw's and had no idea lol. They're probably the same size as the carpet spikes for the tower speakers. Svs sells rubber screw in feet for subs I bet those would work for hard surfaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I just looked up those Dayton audio spikes, I bet those would work. Screw in feet are pretty standard size wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kl1688 Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 SVS Sub feet look good but $50 a set? I have two 115SW's also, so $100 for feet? No way. The Dayton spikes require 5/16th holes for the inserts. I think the holes there are too big and not deep enough. I'll take the floor panel off and make some measurements when I get some time. Maybe the inserts can be install from the top down instead of bottom up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) I just looked under one of my subs, there's a screw under the rubber feet, it looks like a screw for attaching the bottom plate of the subwoofer to the side wall of the sub. I don't think you can use screw in feet. You'll probably have to get a isolation platform Edited April 8, 2016 by Mike M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) You'll probably need something like this http://www.crutchfield.com/p_927SBDDE2/Auralex-SubDude-II.html?tp=68326&awkw=134194639705&awat=pla&awnw=g&awcr=70785541705&awdv=m Edited April 8, 2016 by Mike M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kl1688 Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 That's more then the SVS feet. Wonder if the current screw threads can be matched to the threads of a spike? Maybe replace the screw with an insert and a spike? Question about calibration of you dual subs, did you use the auto setup of your receiver? Do you do both subs together or one at a time? My receiver only has one pre-out, so I use a Y spliter. Distance of both subs is about the same so not an issue. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
