If you have access to the basement and it is un finished, you could put in some "lally columns" see link

I did this when I had an LP12 to reduce the springy response to footfall. Locate the two joists that your equipment rack is supported by and tighten the lally columns to just touch the joist. Then the solid cement floor is transferred through the columns and acts like a foundation to support the floor.
Caution though, if you have expansive soil in your area this will not work.
Another partial solution if you have access is to add "bridging" between the joists. This is a board that fills that gap in a perpendicular position to reduce the flexing that takes place when a joist deflects from load.
As a final note, and not to argue with Elizebeth, but I think adding weight will just prove to further damage to the floor and cause more issues down the road. But that is just my opinion and I am not an engineer.
