    Default Anyone use Footers/Outrigger on Sierra Towers

    I am seriously thinking about ordering the new ELX Towers. I have owned towers in the past and truly loved their sound. Probably should have never sold them. I loved the fact that it was bamboo vs MDF, loved that they had amazing drivers but man I hated that plinth.

    Now considering another purchase but using GAIA footers or some type of outrigger to fancy up the base. Thoughts?

    Did you remove the plinths and use the GAIAS right into the bottom of the speaker? Any pics?

    As I recall, I attached to the plinths, not directly to the speakers. No pics available now as out of the country. That said, I may have posted one or two on this forum but not sure where exactly.

    You can easily use outriggers without using the optional plinth. The threaded inserts on the bottom of the speaker cabinet are 1/4-20. We have had many customers do this. You can even use the towers without the plinth if you prefer.

    Thanks!
