My priority is zero noise transmission to my neighbours, as I live in an apartment

Do spikes isolate or lock the speaker to the building structure? If I sit it on pads how much would that affect their quality of life?

Obviously volume is most key, that’s never over moderate, but I want to enjoy my music without being a total dick to those around me

    My priority is zero noise transmission to my neighbours

    I live in an apartment and have been on both sides of this. As a neighbor, nothing is more annoying than hearing that “thud, thud, thud…” of too much bass slicing into my living room as if the walls/floor weren’t even there.

    As a listener I used to get the occasional knock on the door / “It’s too loud / turn it down” visit.

    I’ve long since given up on that and only use headphones for full volume listening. Whenever I listen on speakers, I have the volume low enough that I can barely hear it in one of my other rooms.
