Further Isolation for Spike Cups


I recently acquired a pair of Paradigm Reference Studio 100 v.2 speakers, which are placed on suspended hardwood floors. The bass and midrange response as well as sound stage improved dramatically when I removed the round brass feet and placed 1" dia. aluminum receiving cups under the spikes. I'd like to try isolating the speakers even further by attaching adhesive felt furniture pads or "magic sliders" (I think a kind of hard nylon) under the cups. I.e.:

Any sense of whether felt or "magic sliders" (or even something like rubber) would work best?

Thanks,

Thanks for the replies. I contacted Herbies Audio Lab and the products they recommended all had hard, convex plastic undersides. I'm going to go with the "magic sliders" under the receiving cups (heck, might even sandwich the felt in the middle -- why not?, and if I like what I hear will probably upgrade to one of the Herbie's products later.
