Lonely piece of marble: where should it go?

Greetings. Through some strange providence, I have assembled a decent entry-leveler. Consists of a Music Hall MMF 7.1 tt, Exposure 2010s integrated + power amps (one driving bass, the other treble), and nice, ugly Vandersteen 3a sigs. Good times! So, the sidewalk outside my Vermont home (circa 1865) is made of marble slabs. These get prised up and sometimes break when the sidewalk plows come through in the winter. I'm sure the town fathers hate this sidewalk and would not object to the fact that I STOLE one of the pieces of marble, because I'm sure they want to get rid of the crud anyway. Should I put it under my TT or halve it for the speakers?

I agree.. Marble resonates at a high pitch

I have Vandersteen 5A's which were professionally installed and set up. They are on a wood floor with the spikes, however, the spikes are on discs that protect the floor. To clarify "rebrate at a high pitch" above means that anything on the marble will sound like the treble control is turned way up..it will sound very hard and bright.
