Description

Versatile all-brass footer for rugs or carpet. Individually precision-turned to close tolerances in our Vermont workshop. Conceived, tested, successively refined and manufactured expressly for audio. Unparalleled coupling efficiency makes for sonics that are open, forthrightly linear and extended.

Now in a larger range of sizes. Available unthreaded, machine-threaded and wood-threaded.

Also available in ANY other practicable thread size–if you don’t see your size listed, or for help matching your size, contact us: [email link]; or by SMS, anytime: [phone 802 595 0708]

If the combined thickness of your carpet and pad is 1″ or under, we recommend the CP series, with its relatively compact, acute-tapering spike.

If the combined thickness of your carpet and pad is over 1″, we suggest the DCP series, which provides 160% of the piercing depth as well as the sharpest spike-tip you’ll find on any brass footer anywhere.

Both series also work well with area rugs, Persian carpets, throw rugs and the like.

Components, platforms or racks of 5~90 pounds are well-suited to the use of three or four pieces of the CP1 or DCP2. Get them threaded if at all possible; unthreaded will also work if you’re limited to that–or if you’re simply comfortable with the configuration.

Components, platforms or racks of ~ 50-2500 pounds are suitable for use with the larger and more massive CP3 and DCP3 X. Each of these 3″ footers is substantially more than two kilos each and packs a wallop.
