Tile floor! Help!

So normally I use the threaded spikes that screw up into the base of my Dynaudio Contour 3.0's when they are on carpet/concrete. I don't like using them directly on this new tile floor that my listening room is now residing. The tiles are a little rough not super smooth so I have to level the speakers and get them anchored properly, when I use a small amount of putty in each corner it kills the life of the sound, so out with that idea, then I tried some little clear rubber discs and that was a lot better but I'm still thinking the speakers are not quite right, Ive never had to deal with a bare tile floor ....what do you all think would work best under these speakers?

I have a 5x7 area rug that helped a lot as far as cutting out the bad upper ringing. I was hoping for a more cost effective solution.....I guess spikes into a brass saucer would work? has anyone used these on floor standing speakers? they cost $20 a piece and I need eight of them.

Peter where do you get alluminum saucers for $5  ??  Thats each one I presume also.  I found some brass ones for $25 a piece. I like $5 per better:-)
