Sorbathane under granite slabs for speaker bases?


I’m getting two 12"x12" granite slabs to use as bases under my KEF Reference Model 2s via spikes. They will be sitting on a 5" high hollow tile shelf. Would using thin (.25") 70 duro sorbathane under the slabs help in isolating the speakers or will it possibly negatively impact the sound?

Thanks for any input.

The same reason Sorbothane is used for shoe insoles - shock absorption - makes it unsuitable for use in isolation devices since Sorbothane stores energy, preventing energy from rapidly exiting the system. Compared to what, you ask? Compared to say, Super Balls. Super Balls release energy very rapidly. Or very hard cones, which also release energy rapidly. It’s a subtle thing, the Sorbothane, but quite noticeable compared to real isolation. Tone incorrect, loss of dynamics, closed in sound. Ah, I remember it well.

I guess the question is whether to drain or isolate.  Personally, I've avoided visco-elastic stuff under speakers.   Expect others have opposite experience to share.

I'm using hardwood (3"?) plinths directly under speakers.  Hardwood resting on large 18x18" tile.  Tile on carpet.  The tile gives the plinth stability on the carpet.  The hardwood "drains" vibrational energy from the speakers (or so I think).
