Multiple options exist for the audiophile seeking to improve the sound from a speaker, including spikes that aim to limit vibration by separating the cabinet from the surface below it (which may or may not work all that well, depending on the vibration frequency) and resonance compensators that seek to absorb vibration. In a previous episode of The Cool Parts Show, we spoke with Günter Kappler, a mechanical engineer who has developed 3D printed metal bellows. Here, Kappler shares how he applied the lessons learned from printing those flexible bellows to creating these ductile spikes. The devices borrow from conventional spikes, coming to a point to limit the contact between the speaker and the floor, but also offer flexibility to help isolate the speaker and damp vibration.
