I was not sure where to turn for this advice so I thought I would try here.
My new speakers are stand mounted but they weigh about 130 pounds each. I have received my custom built Sound Anchor stands, and included are these 1 inch diameter blue dots that are to be placed between the speaker and the stand.
The dots have peel off paper on both sides so that, if removed, the sticky side can be attached to the stand and then the other side faces up (without removing the peel off paper), onto which the speaker sits. That is all well and good if the speaker is light and you can carefully place it EXACTLY where it is supposed to be. But in my case, even with two people placing the speaker, it needs to be adjusted on the stand ---and hence the problem. If you try to slide the speaker into the exactl location on the stand, the peel off paper comes off and (a) the sticky part can remove finish on the speakers and (b) it makes moving the speaker difficult.
Has anyone used these before and if so, how did you solve this problem. Is there another product that I can place between the speakers and stand to couple them that will not hurt the finish? I remember Blu Tac as a name. How well does it work?
