I just aquired a pair of Belles which will go onto a hardwood floor. They presently have old & worn felt strips on the bottoms. Should I replace the old felt strips with the same, or would I be better off with those black rubber screw-in feet? TIA!

Will make not a "dime's worth of difference" Acoustically. I vote for the felt if they are on hardwood floors, easier to position.

As a side note, the belles are a better bass bin than a LaScala (straight/non expanding segment). Paul Klipsch told me he thought he had made the K-400 horn longer than it had to be when he designed the K-500 horn of the belle and measured it. That's DIRECT information from me to you from August 1985 when I spent an entire day with PWK.

@bobdrob , I REALLY have success with these under my LaScala ll: https://www.ebay.com/itm/355019992586?var=624293143582
Plus, my wood floors are uneven & these helped level them.

Thanks to all who have given me sage advice!
