Then there's the well-published advantages of isolation pads for monitors.
Proponents of isolation pads claim to observe better and tighter bass after they placed their monitors on them (the pads).
But then, why are we advised to couple our speakers to the floor? Spikes, for instance, are recommended for carpeted floors. The reason being, the speakers need to be coupled to the floor well in order to sound their best.
Seems to me that these are conflicting princilpes.
Some light shed on this confusion will really be appreciated.
