The 5 Best Dayton Audio Spikes (2023 reviews)

The dayton audio cone spike's material feels more premium than its price would suggest. These attractive spikes are precision machined from solid brass and then plated with a durable black finish. They look great, and perform flawlessly. The tips can be adjusted to level the speaker, or angle the front upward, which you prefer. They suspend the subwoofer over the carpet so there is a 3/4 inch gap between floor and speaker. The kit comes with everything pictured and is packaged well to prevent damage in transport.

These stands are solid, all of the hardware looks great and is machined well. It is easy to install also.

Why We Like This:

Solid brass construction with attractive plated finish

We know from years of feedback from readers, customers and amazon sellers, what most people want in a spike. This product is exactly that - it's a simple product that hits all the right notes. These are nice for hardwood floors. It includes four cone spikes, four floor discs, four barbed insert nuts, and four threaded studs. They fit snugly and feel firm. It is nice that they use the same threads as the Dayton spikes so it is a piece of cake to swap them out, or it should have been.

The spikes are made to go into a carpet for stability and these are designed for stability on hard floors so. They do take a little skill to add, drill hole, screw in insert and screw in foot for about 15 minutes if your careful. They're well made and work well.

Best For Turntable: Dayton Audio cone Spike

Buy on Amazon

If you have a front firing sub woofer, it is better to begin with, and it helps even more to have the sub on spikes. The spikes transfer the unmuffled sound right to the subfloor. It includes 4 black chrome cone spikes, 4 black chrome floor discs, 4 t-nuts and 4 threaded studs. The spikes help keep the cabinet itself from rattling the floor as much.

The speaker spikes are tall enough that they cut through shag carpet. They improve the bass by making it tighter and by avoiding losing it into the floor. The cone is actually two pieces with the smaller cone screwing into the larger one. It measures 1-1/4" diameter and 1-1/2" tall.

Why We Like This:

Great if you have inserts already in your speaker or sub woofer
Tall enough to cut through rug
Easy to install and beautifully finished

Using them with just the spikes will anchor them to a carpeted floor and allow you to level them if needed, and presumably give you good "ground rumbling" bass. It improves clarity, stereo imaging, and bass response.

Installation is easy, they tell you what size drill bit to use (5/16ths) and then you use an allen wrench to screw the inserts in. The speakers are stable on the carpet and have about 1/4 inch clearance with the spikes in. This will minimize contact with the surface on which your turntable, speakers, etc. It is perfectly in the factory hardware. The bass is a little bit more punchy also. It is great for vinyl enthusiasts.
