can you add carpet spikes? If not how do you balance them on a floor that may not be perfectly level and prevert vibration?

No, you cannot add carpet spikes. The base is heavy cast iron, and does not have holes drilled to add spikes. To level the stands you would need to either shim the legs or repair your floor so it is level.

I have mine set up on the carpet and am having no issues with it. You just need to make sure you use the leveling feet at the end so that everything is setting just right. took me about 5 minutes to get that just perfect.

I would expect a small amount of sound and vibration to lower. Keep in mind these are just made out of painted MDF wood. The spikes on these are made out of plastic and don't have much of a proper spike on them. They spike into carpet well, but I wouldn't worry about damaging hardwood with these. If you really wanted to lower vibration transfer, look into finding a set of stands that allow you to fill the vertical section with sand.

Mine sits on carpet but has never tipped over. Try putting a board underneath it.

I'm sorry I am not sure as to what the thickness a carpet style mat is...the best I think I could answer you is that I believe it may be a bit thinner, but it is not too thin...a decent thickness...no spikes. It has a smooth side and then the other side a little rough. Hopefully that makes sense. We have it on a wood floor and it has worked well for us...we have two.

Comes with carpet spikes or rubber pads for the bottom. Top spikes are metal and might scratch a speaker. You can simply not install them and use something else, some sort of rubber with adhesive on one side for example.

Have not noticed that. Maybe if pushed up on center from bottom?? But there was no wobble at all setting up or in use. I didn't get any movement from center at all. Was used on Berber carpet.

Are you kidding? Look at those ridges! If you require vibration with those things, you're doing it wrong ;)

They have plastic insert bottoms, so the metal should not touch the floor. You might be able to attach felt pads to the bottoms as well.

There actually are spikes on the bottom of the mats, they appear to be somewhat short. And the following still applies, They have heavy ribbed areas, but some minor sliding will occur.

My floor is carpeted and the metal sits flush with the floor. It is not high

I do believe they give you spikes for the carpet and rubber ones for hard floors. I have my stands on a wooden floor and it is fine.

If your floor is level and you bolt them together it should look OK, not perfect but acceptable. Placing them on a rug will cause a small gap between them. Bolting them together will help but they're heavy and it would be difficult to attach them from the back. The only place where you could bolt them in place may be through the bottom cabinet and on the very top.

Yes, we often use them on a carpet. Sometimes it might be necessary to stack them, but they work fine.

I didn't think of that, but they should work if the spikes are anchored securely. Cats consider anywhere they are as "their property" and will "adjust" it accordingly.

They don't work to good on carpet. I wouldn't recommend you using them on carpet.

No height adjustment just brush on or off for hard floors. I have some very short napped deck rugs. It works great on hard floor & those rugs. But a reg napped carpet I can imagine would be pretty hard to push.
