    Best in the business. Tell Grant that you are a member of Club Polk then tell him what speakers you need the spike for and he'll hook you up.

    Are these what you're looking for? Post #8 shows a good photo of them. I'm not sure if Myesound has them but YNK. http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85724

    The 1000s already have spikes in them. Take the rubber surround of and the spikes are exposed. Not sure about the 2000's.

    Someone here should know that. PM Dorokusai or F1nut, they should be able to tell you the thread size.

    Move the speakers into place then remove the rubber feet. If you need to move or adjust them then you have to learn the speaker waltz.

    Spiked speakers on carpet sounds leaps and bounds better than just setting them on the carpet.
