Stands and coupling for Yamaha NS1000M

Hey guys.

I have been doing a lot of DIY of late and made some stands for my Yamaha NS1000M speakers.

I made some out of wooden worktop and resemble the Kenrick Sounds stands.

My question is this.

1. Should I couple the speaker to the stands with some feet, or

2. should I sit it directly - ie cabinet to wood stand

3. same as above but the feet of the stands

4. If so what do I use for the feet

5. has anyone tried deflex panels to couple speakers to the floor or to stands?

I made some Kenrick style stands as they are similar in looks to the original NS1000M stands. I always find the science of speaker stands frustrating, especially when I hear some reviews.
