Yes the business seems sort of dead , on the other hand the product don't have to change much , but an updated web site could improve sales methinks :) It's usually not recommended to drill new holes in a speaker , back to topic 3 holes would be easier to adjust . When I had spikes I usually had the speaker on felt feets at first to find a good placement , then I finalised it with spikes . If you care for the floor , there is some kind of small washers you can put under the spike too. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
