@kosst_amojan Using spikes is not a one directional vibration reducing tool. Just as vibrations go down the spike to the floor underneath, they come right back up again. What's that getting you? Your post also states that the decoupled speaker is "floating". In my particular case, my stereo room is carpet+pad over concrete slab. My speaker spikes are resting in a Herbie's Audio Lab cone/spike decoupling gliders, which settle into the carpet and pad quite nicely due to the weight of the speakers themselves. There is no "floating" happening. Regardless, the proof in this hobby is always in the listening. The improved clarity using this decoupling method is immediate and consistent. The comparison between coupling and decoupling yields results constantly favoring the decoupling.
After realizing this improvement I proceeded to decouple both subwoofers using a larger decoupling device sourced from Herbie. Now all of the vibrations of the speakers and subs are not being transmitted into the component rack causing them to vibrate right along with the music.
If there is one lesson I've learned in all these many years, it is that vibration and resonance are the enemy of your stereo components. This would help account for the considerable money audiophiles spend on their racks and component vibration/resonance damping tweaks.
Lastly, you state "A floating floor is a less than ideal platform upon which to place a stereo. " Now that floating floor must be quite something. Maglev technology on a grandiose scale perhaps? That's something I would love to behold. And who says there are LAWS of physics?
