Wow they are small.
Do they sell them in 8 pack for a 2c going onto a hardwood floor?

And who is carrying them?

Dealers carry them, though you might be able to order directly from Vandersteen.

I thought the 2’s stand only had three spikes

[Richard Vandersteen]

We do not sell direct.  They can be ordered from any Vandersteen Dealer.  RV

[TomicTime]

These are the “ Hilti “ spikes, i believe Treo and above come w hardened aluminum spikes… IF you understand how Vandy beats inflation as Brad pointed out recently on model 2 pricing, you understand functionality reigns supreme over cosmetics…at certain value points…points..get it .?!!!!!!
 

@Brad Ocan you comment on shoes available in black ?

Maybe with the after market “anchors”… what are they called again?

My old ones have their 4 points as one on each corner.
Being cheap I often used a penny… but later I sometimes a quarter under them on parquet floors.

2C speakers 40+ years old had four points because that was before I knew better!  What a pain they were to get all four spikes equally loaded.  Hey! they once thought the earth was flat.  RV

Tell me it ain’t so!

@Richard Vandersteen - are they available in an 8 pack? Or only 6-packs?
Australia rounds to the nearest 5 cent increment as they literally have no cents, so using pennies are out.
I suppose I could up my game to a different coin, but the shoes seem a bit nicer.

 

 

Three probably makes sense more on a speaker, than on say a Robin Reliant:

No Bob…. They were considered to be total crap, but on UK roads… well I would not be surprised if some still survived.

The Messerschmit kr200 and BMW Izzetta  were like a plane with a single rear wheel (They may call those planes “Tail draggers?”).
They seem like a decent three wheelers.

I’ve emailed a dealer for 8-pack shoes.

here you go…….

[Steve Edwards]

Those look just like my first pair of Vandersteens  ...........  circa 1985

@TomicTime I think you need some speaker cables and some more toe in.
