I would imagine that Custom would be able to, or Ebay has lots of choice. Just make sure you get the correct size for your needs!

RE: speaker stand spikes

about a few mill in one corner on one stand....not critical but it makes my speaker look slightly wonky...got a small piece of cardboard under the disk the spike sits on but it's not ideal.

RE: speaker stand spikes

In that case there should be enough adjustment in those spikes, once levelled just tighten the lock nut against the stand to lock in place.
