{"product_id":"viablue-qtc-xl-spikes","title":"ViaBlue QTC XL Spikes (Set of 4)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ViaBlue QTC XL Spikes are the larger version of the QTC Spikes – for heavier floor-standing speakers and components that need more contact area under the tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heavier a speaker or component, the more pressure acts on the single contact point of a spike. That's why the QTC XL comes with larger, 35-millimetre stainless steel washers than the regular QTC set – they spread the weight more generously and reliably protect sensitive floors even under heavy floor-standing speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou place four XL spikes plus four large protective washers under your component without any screwing. As with the smaller QTC set, the tip concentrates the contact with the surface at a single point – the XL version just has more headroom for weight and area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho are the QTC XL Spikes suitable for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for heavy floor-standing speakers and bulky components where the regular QTC washer would reach its limits. For lighter bookshelf speakers or electronics, the standard QTC set is enough – there, you can save the extra cost of the XL version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same honest idea as the regular QTC, just with more headroom for weight: a small point of contact, a generous protective washer underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: decoupling spike, single point, reinforced version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVersion: set of 4 incl. 4 stainless steel washers Ø 35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: heavy floor-standing speakers and components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: no screwing, freestanding under the component\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScope of delivery: 4 spikes, 4 protective washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen should I choose QTC XL over the regular QTC Spikes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor heavy floor-standing speakers or components where the regular washer would reach its load limit. The larger contact area of the XL washer spreads high weight more safely on sensitive floors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the QTC XL also available in silver?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe currently carry the QTC XL Spikes in black. If you're looking for a light-coloured version, get in touch – we're happy to check whether ViaBlue can supply a silver version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the XL washer differ from the regular one?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a diameter of 35 instead of 25 millimetres, spreading more weight over a larger area. The spike tip itself works on the same principle as the smaller QTC set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I also need the XL version for heavy bookshelf speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsually not – bookshelf speakers typically stand on a stand and put less weight on each individual spike than a large floor-standing speaker. If in doubt, tell us the model and weight and we'll recommend the right size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the ViaBlue QTC XL Spikes at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause we know from experience which spike size suits which speaker weight, and we help you avoid a bad investment.
