tweaks to control resonance in your gear fall into two different catagories; 'isolation' and 'grounding'. the tweaks you describe 'ground' the gear....they do not isolate the gear.
cones, pucks and shelves typically absorb and dampen resonance....in other words they make the resonance different in some way. adding mass or weight can also 'ground' the gear.
isolation requires some sort of 'floating' mechanism; there are a few different types of isolation; 'ball-in'cup' devices are at the bottom of the isolation food chain....then there are mag-lev shelves, air bladders, whole rack system isolation shelves and finally industrial strength active isolation.
grounding can be beneficial; you need to experiment on what sounds best for your system. with grounding some devices will make things better but most make them different.
every isolation device i have tried make things sound more like music.
my daughter lives in Chicago...thanks for helping to make her safe.
good luck.
