Best way to attach speaker to stand?


I have some handmade granite speaker stands and was wondering about the best way to attach the speakers?
The botton of my Nautilus 805 has a masonite plate with two screw holes. Should there be a rubber interface or spikes?? Double sided tape or silicone?
Any recomendations about the feet? Currently on a tile floor.
Thanks,

Ditto. Even with the GMA Europas, which I had been assured were so vibrationally inert due to their cast marble enclosures that you wouldn't need spikes, I heard distinct improvements after spiking them on top of Osiris stands. You can do it with the spikes pointing up or down in my experience, though I usually turn them down to avoid scratching the speakers themselves. Every monitor speaker I've heard in my system sounded better spiked on top of the stands.
