Help, please - anybody!

Does anyone know where I can get a set of 8 metal (or acrylic) speaker stand spikes (a.k.a. toes, cones, or whatever the heck these things are called?!?!?) for a pair of SDA 2.3's? My fingers are getting numb from typing search strings on Yahoo, Google, Altavista, etc. !

    www.oregondv.com Paul carries top notch stuff, and is a Polk Forum supporter.

    SDA's have 1/4 - 20 spikes.

    Thanks, Doro!

    I had found the http://www.oregondv.com/ website, but what threw me off, was that all spikes seemed to have protruding threads to be inserted into the woodwork, like when you're DIY-ing it. I guess if Paul is a supporter of Polk and our forum, he may have the kind you can just slip underneath the speaker. I'll send him an email. Thanks again.

    BTW, in the mean time I have found the following:

    Any comments?

    Spikes are basically spikes.

    I deal with Paul because of his support of the Polk forum, and that's good enough for me. The threads are removeable, and you can either use an existing insert, install the insert provided, or "glue" them onto your gear.
