There is no real solution to your problem. Soft things like wood, rubber, etc. will just rob you of dynamics. About the only thing that is realistic, I think, is a three inch thick piece of granite, not marble which just rings like a bell. Place the granite into a larger wooden box that is partially full of sand. This will dampen the ringing of the granite. My wooden box had a sheet metal bottom and had no projecting screw heads or feet, which would ruin what you were seeking. Mass and the irregularities of sand were where you were placing your bet.
This does nothing for springy floors. Nothing other than an adjustable pole placed under your floor and run up tight against the floor from below. I doubt if you can do this. Wall mounting is no real solution as the walls vibrate also. Perhaps using the rafters above might be useful, but I've never tried that.
