In all sincerity we all have at one time or another...believe me I am NOT laughing at you.
I purchased the ISO PADS from the same company as monk and past the extra to audiobill. Honestly I don't know if he uses them. Truthfully I personally don't know if they work with my application which I have them located on all of my equipment except my speakers and a 100 lb SS amplifier I have for HT.
I am using sub-dudes from Auralex for my almost 100lb 803's. I believe I purchased them at $60.00 a piece from Sweetwater. They come in two sizes.
I still have to make some adjustments since they are on the edge of the platform BUT I like what I hear. The mids and lows sound more distinctive. My floor is cement but it is padded and carpeted.
If possible return your purchase, especially if you have the orginal box.
Then place an order with with supplyhouse.
My 803's were orginally 4' from my rear wall but only 1" from the side walls. Contacting B&W they recommend that I try to make adjustments which I have since contacting them. They are 6" from the side walls...not ideal (best I can do b/c of room restrictions) but with that adjustment and the sub-dudes it is a noticable improvement.
Despite the 803's against the walls before this change the bass was not muddy nor was the treble/midrange confusing to listen too.
The mastreo was in the house a while ago just after I purchased the 803's and he liked what he heard...I do think there is an improvement.
Sorry I digressed.
Hope you are well Scott,

We should do another audio get-together soon.I didn't order anything and fortunately wasn't "taken". I have been thinking about getting them and will most certainly try the cheaper route first. Thanks for the heads up.
I'm the skeptical type and not into snake oil items by any stretch.

Love to get together the guys.
Snake oil Scottie, try this out.
