I am planning a DIY subwoofer build using 2 SVS db12's each in it's own ported cabinet. I am building it to match my RTI A9's cosmetically. Each cabinet will be tall and deep with the teardrop shape, cherry finish, silver flare port, black grill, etc. I have made a list of all the parts I need, but the silver-bullet shaped feet (on the A9's) are the missing piece of the puzzle. Does anyone know how I can get my hands on these? I have searched the internet and can't find anything close. I would even settle for black feet in the same shape and style and use silver spray paint. Any help would be great..

    IMO,

    I would replace your A9 feet with brass spikes and throw away those plastic ones.....

    The A9's don't have plastic spikes.. The riggers?? yes they are plastic. Just call Polk and they will hook you up, at least that will get you going for not much money.

    @jbooker,

    How do you like the sound of your Carver on your A7's?

    It sounds great. Really drives the speakers with some authority. I went with a Carver since they are known to be on the warm side.
