Paul-
Received & installed...AWESOME!
Excellent quality and a snap to install. Not only do
they look tremendous the setup and adjustment is
really quite simple. I was also impressed with how
much more solid my bass is as well as an improvement
to the soundstage. Perhaps this is due to
the improved coupling to the floor?
I will forward photo's this evening and post AGon
feedback.
I really appreciate it and it is always nice to find
an audio product which is absurdly priced and works
so well.
Thanks!

Hi Paul!
Got the outriggers today and just installed them.
They look fantastic. At my first listen (As I write
this.), it seems to tighten up the bass and overall
sound.............Not sure if that makes sense or not.
(I like the sound!)
I will put in a few hours with them over the weekend,
but it appears they really make a difference.
Thanks again for all of your time and advice you gave
me, I appreciate it.

Hi Paul,
It does a great job at stabilizing the speakers and the
adjustments on the side are really helpful. I was able to
easily level my speakers on my "not too leveled" floor :).
The quality of the finished product is just great!

Paul, I had the opportunity to put the outriggers on my speakers and think they are a great addition. It is now so easy to level the speakers and they make them rock solid. There is also a definite improvement in imaging and the bass and mid-range. I attached a picture of one of the speakers. They were custom made by Jim Salk and sound incredible. Thanks for a great product, Greg

Thanks Paul,
I received the outriggers yesterday and installed them last night. They fit perfectly and look great. I'll get you some pics next week. Thanks so much.

Hi Paul,

Paul,
Just wanted to let you know
that I received the outriggers for Christmas and they are
simply fantastic. My concerns earlier was that there was
only one spike in the back similar to the Adagios you
mentioned and I wouldn't be able to resolve the difference
in speaker width between the front and back.
Everything connected easily as you had mentioned and I am
quite impressed with the quality and looks of the
outriggers. The spikes are deep enough to penetrate
the carpeting. I had thought I would have to resort to
making these but the cost was reasonable and the fit and
finish are first class.
Please feel free to use my
feedback as you wish as this was actually my favorite
Christmas gift this year. Attached are pictures of my
Piega C3-LTDs with the outriggers you can also use as you
feel.
Merry Christmas/Happy
Holidays,
Mark

Paul, Just quick note to let you know that I got your outriggers installed. The design and workmanship of your product is outstanding and has elevated the sound of my Triangle Celius (Stereophile class "A" rated) speakers to another level. My wife and I are looking for another pair of speakers for our family room and you can be sure that I will be ordering a set of outriggers for them. Thank you again for your help. Best regards, Dave

Hey Paul, I have installed the SBN9s and the improvements to my system are better than I had imagined. Thanks again for your assistance. As requested, I have attached a couple of photos. Take care and have a great Labor day weekend. Peace … Pete John

Paul ~ Here you go – I hope you can use any of the pictures. It was a custom job to mount the Outriggers on the B&W’s because the base is cast metal. I removed the factory casters and made mounting pieces for the Outriggers. Also I made platforms of 2 1/2” hard maple and stained them, them used your spikes to get the platforms off the floor. It works and looks great. John

Hi
Paul,
The outriggers arrived yesterday. It was a very nice surprise to receive them earlier than expected! The quality and finish of your product is superb. You have truly exceeded my expectations. I'll continue with speaker placement this week and will report back to you with my listening experiences. Just wanted to keep you posted and say thank you. I'll also be happy to send a recommendation with photos for your website after speaker placement is completed. Thank you so very much, Chris

Hi Paul, I received my outriggers about 2 weeks ago but only finished the bases for my speakers yesterday. The bases are made of New Zealand totara and are filled with sand. They add about 15 pounds to each speaker and in combination with your outriggers should make it very difficult for the dog to knock them into the walls anymore! The top of the speakers are now nearly 40" from the floor but they are incredibly stable. The other new addition to my set-up is some DIY (but not by me) speaker cables made from braided multiple pairs of Cat5 ethernet cables. The addition of your outriggers seem to have further increased the extra depth and weight of bass frequencies that the cables brought. I can now use the Direct setting on my amp where before I had to bump up the bass with the tone controls. Thanks for such an excellent product, Aaron

Hi
Paul,
Just installed the outriggers on the speakers. They are looking great. The sound improvement is quite noticeable, especially in the bass - much more focused. For the first time ever, I was able to move my speakers around without being afraid of knocking them down, - and I by proper positioning, I've got a much bigger soundstage. The outriggers are very stable, and the ability to adjust each cone separately using the knobs is really great! You've got an excellent product! Regards, Victor

The Outriggers
provided an elegant solution to the problem I had of needing to
angle my speakers down a couple of degrees to align the main
driver with my ear height at the preferred listening position.
Besides that, the expanded base and easy/precise adjustability
makes these speakers seem to be BOLTED to the floor - a VERY
good thing indeed. This means that ALL of the drivers' energy
is spent on producing music and NOT in rocking the speaker
around. A win/win for sure!
Best Regards, Doak

The outriggers make a HUGE difference-they are absolutely essential in my opinion for good sound with these speakers on carpet and I wouldn't dispense of them regardless of flooring. Mitch

Hi Paul
Its been over 2 months now since the outriggers for my Adagios were installed. They are now rock solid to the floor. The sound improvement floored me, no pun intended. The bass is much better along with the highs and mids. These outriggers should be required for the Adagios. Otherwise, the spikes that comes with the speakers, just are not good enough to bring out the best in these wonderful speakers. Highly recommended. Much thanks. Henry

Hi Paul,
Got the package today, and installed both stand/base. I'm very satisfied with the product, excellent craftsmanship. They look and feel awesome. Keep making good product in the ol' USA. B&W 704. Regards, Tony

Hi Paul the outriggers work great I’ve included a picture of my Odyssey Lorelei’s with them installed. Installation was a breeze. Is it possible to purchase the longer tips for the cones? I bought the 1.5” and I have carpet I think the longer tip would work better. Russell C. Chicago, IL

Paul -
I installed the outriggers yesterday. All went well. It did take three of us to get the speakers upright and on the little floor cups. I am listening today. No huge changes, but the bass is tighter and better integrated into the overall sound. What I really love is the ability to fully balance my speakers and adjust the tilt for the tweeters. Moving the speakers is also easier. Our house is a 1920's Tudor and the floor is very caddy wampus (sp?). The plinths allow me to adjust for that and also give increased stability to my Verity Parsifal Encores. A great product - thanks! James M.

Paul,
They work great; very solid and fix the problem of the uneven but currently popular hand scraped wood flooring. Surprisingly they also received a fairly high WAF. Thanks again, David

Hi Paul!
I received the outriggers on Sat., thanks. They are very
nice! I have installed them on my Gall Reference 3s and they
work *great*! The speakers are MUCH more stable now. Plus,
the outriggers look kinda cool. I think I may order some
cones from your site, I'll peruse it today and get back to
you.
I also wanted to let you know that I'm going to put some
favorable reviews up on some audio sites, I hope I can drive
some business your way. Thanks again for a good product at a
great price!
Best Wishes

Hi Paul,
I was able to get
the Outriggers installed on my Dali Euphonia MS5's using the
Dali spikes and locking nut. They look great and made a
noticeable improvement in the sound. Bass was much tighter
and everything seems to snap into focus. The speakers are rock
solid stable.
I have attached a
couple of photos.
Thanks for the
great service!!
Sincerely,
Thomas N.

Hi Paul, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the looks and audible benefits of the Soundocity Outriggers. My soundstage is clearer and more open, and bass is better defined with more impact (given that they’re now anchored to the subfloor). While doing the research, I didn’t find any a/d/s speakers listed for reference – they use the ¼-20 standard thread. I’ve attached some pics for ...whatever you want to use them for! Thanks again for everything,
Dan E.

NHT Classic 4 with Soundocity Outriggers
Love your outriggers. The quality is very apparent. Sturdy, well finished, with quality components. They go on very easily and provide a very stable mount that firms up the bass. I have the speakers angled up in the front. It's so nice to be able to adjust the angle so easily. Very, very satisfied with your product. Here are some pix. Take care.

My order arrived on Saturday... thank you very much. The outriggers
are an absolute blessing from the standpoint of
stabilizing my speakers on the carpeted surface. So simple and
functional. Great product.

Just a quick note to say that the stands arrived in fine shape and we assembled them last night. There is no doubt that they have made a very nice difference tightening up the bass and smoothing out the overall response of the Merlins. Of equal practical importance is that the speakers are now much more stable. (Only other spikes and stands I have ever had this experience with are the ******** which are certainly a whole lot more money and not as stable.) CK

Hello Paul,
I do not usually write a company thanking them for a
product which they sold me, but these outriggers are not your everyday
"maybe it will work tweak" These outriggers improve the look of my Dali
Euphonia MS4's and the coupling of speaker to floor is rock solid,
also the ease of dialing in the tilt and the leveling couldn't be
simpler. The bass is tighter and more focused, this was immediately
apparent on the first disc played. In the world of audiophilia (insanity)
when a product comes along, that is not mumbo jumbo voodoo hoodo, maybe I
hear a difference after about three drinks.... One should. The industry,
should take notice and make a huge noise of said product. So Kudos to you
and your design team for a job well done.
with high regards,
Fred Jersey City, NJ 07305

"These Outriggers have brought back some of the fun that turns
people into Audioholics in the first place."
"I can not express in words the convenience of having the spike adjustment on the side of the speaker. It is… an indescribable difference."

Everything is perfect now. I have taken the
granite slabs out and used the taller spikes on the rears. These soundbars
are the perfect solution for my Aerius I and I would be happy to recommend
them to anyone.
Cheers.

In addition to a unique chambered cabinet
design the base of the Aria can be filled with sand or lead shot. Add this
extra weight to the Soundocity Outriggers and you've got an incredibly stable
and acoustically dead enclosure. All you hear is the music, not the "box".

THANKS!! Having audiophile nervosa, now I won't have to resort to other
measures of insanity! :-) Your product was installed shortly after I received shipment!! Late last night after warming up my system front end, I experienced a BIG difference with my M&K MX5000 THX subs!! Now, bass is much clearer and tighter!! That's what makes this hobby so great!!! Thanks again!! Vernon Granada Hills, CA
Thank you for the speedy shipment, I received the outriggers yesterday and
installed them last night. I'm impressed with the heavy duty construction
and very satisfied with the results. The speakers are clearly more stable
than my original set-up and I'm please with the acoustic improvement. I've
included some pics with this e-mail if you'd like to add to your gallery.
Thanks again, Steve (Houston, TX)
