That's right, up for grabs is 3 anti-vibration pads. These are 2"x2" and 7/8" thick. They have rubber on the outside and cork in the middle.

I tried them on my front end and found that it increased the bass, which is not the direction I wanted to go. So, I ordered some Vibrapods to see how those sound.

My only requirement is that you must have over 100 posts. I'll do a random draw some time over the weekend. Good luck!

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    FWIW, I found that soft isolators tend to enhance bass, and blur midrange a bit. If you want tighter bass try isolation cones of brass or other hard material. Just my 2 cents.

    Sub-flooring has a big impact as well. My floor is concrete slab, so I only have airborne vibration to deal with.
