DIY speaker isolation base for a wood floor


A definite sonic improvement in tightening up the bass. 
1. Start with 4 aluminum cones. I used some old Mod Squad Tip Toes.
2. 16x16 slab of granite.
3. 1/8 cork.
4. 1/2 inch neoprene rubber.
5. 1/8 cork.
6. Top with another 16x16 slab of granite.
7. Enclosed with a wood cradle to hide the mechanism.
  The granite is from scraps from a shop and was cheap. The added 1/4 inch of neoprene to 1/2 inch thickness did help. Let me hear your thoughts.

I know an engineer and he has restaurant clients that have him calculate how often that they need to tighten the screws on a ceiling mounted beer mug holder that you typically see in a bar.

The reason for this is primarily vibrations from vehicle traffic. If the screws aren't periodically tightened, then the beer mug rack will eventually come crashing down. Based on this example, I'd say vibration issues is a real thing.
