Can these stands be used on hardwood floors or do they have spikes on the bottom?

you could just not install them and the stands would lay flat for the most part my polk monitor 40s sit fine on them with no spikes on cement. For wood I'd put the felt pads on the holes to not scratch =)

They have spikes but you dont have to put them on. We got felt pads from the hardware store that we just stuck on them

Dear Beth, they do have spikes on the bottom, I would not recomended to place them on hardwood floor, they might scratch your floor in the long run.

the stands have spikes on the bottom but you can put pads on them if you purchase them separately or go to your nearest hardware store

Well these speakers don't have the spot on the bottom to take a stand, but mine came with heavy duty casting wheels. If you did want to put them up on a stand I would use a stand that can support up to 100lbs, these speakers are semi light, weighing in at 77lbs.

No, i did not need the spikes since my floors are hard wood. On carpet however, I would recommend them.

it has spikes on the bottom that push into the ground so they would be in the way

They're 10 inches high and I used them with 2 x 12 roughcut redwood. After a year I'm very satisfied with them. The black finish has faded in spots to dark gray but that doesn't concern me.

You could put them on any kind of pad. They are covered by a nylon "sock" that surrounds the entire speaker and are quite heavy. The foot allows for padded feet or spikes depending whether you are putting them on on bare floor or carpet.

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.

The wheels are rubber tube. I would think they would be fine on hardwoods if they were clean. The wheels are big enough to handle a moderately rough terrain.

They have a base that has holes in them for mounting, if you want to mount them, you can mount them in any position. Otherwise you can have them loose, for tabletop use. Word to the wise they are plastic, so mount them so they don't get bumped or ran into. My hardware store mounted them to a board, and put a chain on the board, so they do grow legs and walk off.

I also have hardwood floors and did not have an issue with these but I really bought them to use as plant stands behind a pair of accent chairs in the living room.

There are not rubber feet on the bottom. There are, as shown in the photo black (aluminum?) nubs that stick down to create a clearance for the uneven surface underneath.

Unfortunately the spikes are needed. There is a bolt on the bottom of the stand that would cause a huge tilt otherwise. But the spikes are rounded, not sharp, so I'm hoping they won't cause any real damage. You might consider getting some rubber pads to put underneath them.

Yup. That is what I have on mine. I used the speaker spikes included with the stands and everything works well. I've bumped them slightly a few times while cleaning and while they have rocked a little but I have yet to knock one over. I am happy with them.

These are NOT jacks or jack stands. The base is too narrow and the feet are not connected so they may sink into asphalt, gravel or soil. They are perfect for stabilizers when the wheels or jacks are used to support the weight of the unit.

I actually have carpeted floors where both stands are. They are slightly wobbly, due to the condition of my floors as well as having an almost 100lb. dog, but the feet on the stands hold up very well.

We have the spikes on the tops of outdoor sconces where nails or screws would damage the sconces. If you're putting them on wood, then screws or nails would work

I have not had any problems with it. The steel that meets the floor is 3/8" thick. I am also using the carpet spikes, but it doesn't need it. Great stands.
