my room is such that it will be awkward to correctly position my speakers , so I need some advice.first, is it safe to move a speaker hooked up to the amplifier? I know the need to be shorted to avoid uncontrolled cone movement when not hooked up, but is movement safe when connected to the amp?
next, are their any prefabricated solutions? or is it all do it yourself?
it's going to take some thinking, the speakers are tower monolith looking deals about five feet high and weigh one hundred pounds each.
So far I've found some likely, but not real great casters for sale but will have to build some kind of low slung carriage between them for the speakers. something industrial decorative with big swivel wheels would seem to be about the best solution .
any advice is welcome . thanks .
