If your problem is that the speaker enclosures are resonating in a bad way and affecting the sound: you might look at heavier, stronger and better braced speaker designs rather than trying to compensate for these vibrations by making coupling resonances with the floor or stands. Fixing the root cause of the problem is often better than band aids.
Isolation for speakers on spikes
A friend recently gave me some Vibrapod isolation discs to put under my speakers, B&W 704. The effect was amazing, however I believe that by removing the spikes the speakers lost a lot of their quickness, and with some music they sound even a little muddy and dull. I tried resting a board on the pods, and the speakers with spikes on top of that, but that didn't work out. How can I get the best of both worlds--the great isolation benefits but also maintain the quickness and clarity that spikes deliver?
