or try the B+M addis drainer mat things - you'd be very suprised just how effective they are, and no marks.

I moved away from this type of audiofoolery years ago. Problem is Derek sent me some & they are sitting in a draw & I can only describe the craving as akin to a reformed alcoholic going to the battle cruiser desperately trying to enjoy his pint of 0 % Nelson Mandela!

the above link is straight to the "latest" thread bit. post no 766!
I put 2 "circles" stacked on top of each other and 1 "bumper" (on the top) under each corner of speaker, and it seemed to make a decent enough difference. Certainly cheap and easy to try. better than blu-tak
