Re: Granite speaker base £7.49

Forgive me as only just recently bought an amp so don't have a subwoofer or anything yet but does this really help with the sound? Any advice please?

Re: Granite speaker base £7.49

Take it that it is worth a punt then for the price? Thank you.

Re: Granite speaker base £7.49

Also the parasol bases are worth considering as they have money off again. You heard me.

Re: Granite speaker base £7.49

Personally i would go with the worktop saver as the bevelling and finish is likely to be of a higher standard.

Re: Granite speaker base £7.49

Just the job, fits under sub perfectly and looks good enough to be wife friendly

Found a Tesco Finest worktop saver to be the best

Re: Granite speaker base £7.49
