Bass Speaker

[Andy!]

Hey is there anything you can put on or under a bass speaker to stop it vibrating on the floor to much?? ie like sometype of spunge that will absorb the vibration.

Thanks

lampie talking here (so dont shout at me if im wrong ) well if its the floor you want it to stop shaking, then could you try spikes?

What kind of bass speaker are we talking about here when we did a concert at school the bassist used his 400w one and the weight alone kept it down!! But a assume you meen a smaller one are you shore the floor is level on all corners etc?

Our 3KW bass bins move a bit and there is very little you can do to stop it completly, you could try adding more weight or fixing them down somehow.

Try a piece of carpet or underfelt cut to size. If they travel when in use then ratchet luggage tie down straps from Halfords (etc) or full size truck load fasteners, fastened to suitable points on the floor.

he he! memories of a festival where we had to load strap the speakers together, and to the platform they were on to stop them walking into the crowd!

[Pete McCrea]

Been there done that too. Felt 7.5t trucks shaking when loaded with 12K of PA. Interesting sensation. Also been sttod in front of an active stack, and not heard anything as it was a low Mid/Sub stack the size of a house. Felt sick quite quickly.....

 

I suggest- carpet under the cab (possibly a piece fixed to the cab bottom, and the a piece fixed to the floor to maximise friction), or then restraint.

I use a couple of big fluffy folded bath towels. One under each cab. Works a treat.
