Speaker Footer Advise Please


I am getting near the end of the road in terms of tuning my system. I feel that one of the last truly big steps I can make will come when I carefully decouple my speakers from my slap concrete floor. What I am looking for is practical experience and advice from people who have performed just this. As a side what were your experiences along the way and what did you settle on and why. My speakers are Wilson Watt Puppies 5.1 and T+A amp and preamp so my system is dynamic to say the least. I'm looking for that last bit of separation of sound field from my speakers and would like to see if I can tighten up my low frequencies from what is now the tightest bass I have ever heard.

Many thanks in advance.

And, a third path:
Herbiesaudiolab.com
Doubled-up Big Tenderfeet placed beneath the bottom of heavy speaker cabinet to separate it from the solid floor.
There is a ninety day home trial period.
Please post which method you end up preferring.
Perfectionist,
Years ago, I did the same with circular vibration absorbers from Audio Advancements LLC, seating them within the top of the original Aurios MIB's. It reduced slipping of components resting upon metallic top of Aurios. There was a favorable effect on the "tuning" of the system sound.
Later on, I used the Mapleshade Records type of barely compressible triple layer vibration absorbers resting against both the top and bottom surface of Aurios MIB's.
This had the added benefit of self-leveling the original Aurios design, which otherwise did not provide automatic self-leveling.
Since Herbie's seems so good, by itself, I have not tried it along with Aurios. If your experience is that there is a positive, or synergistic effect, then time to unpack the retired Aurios footers.
Leica_man, I am having trouble accessing details, or picture of the exact footers you obtained. Is there a website or dealer address which has more information, pictures, and pricing?
