DIY speaker isolation base for a wood floor


A definite sonic improvement in tightening up the bass. 
1. Start with 4 aluminum cones. I used some old Mod Squad Tip Toes.
2. 16x16 slab of granite.
3. 1/8 cork.
4. 1/2 inch neoprene rubber.
5. 1/8 cork.
6. Top with another 16x16 slab of granite.
7. Enclosed with a wood cradle to hide the mechanism.
  The granite is from scraps from a shop and was cheap. The added 1/4 inch of neoprene to 1/2 inch thickness did help. Let me hear your thoughts.

Shock absorbers are air springs or gas springs. They’re springs. You say no, I say yes, you say hello, I say goodbye. Goodbye!
A vehicle suspension consists of a spring element AND a shock absorber. The shock absorber portion is not a spring. It moves typically fluid between sections through small channels converting motion to heat. A little research may be in order for you.
It's okay Geoff. I am going to guess most people know the difference between a shock absorber and a spring in a car even if you don't. Here, maybe this link will help you:

Uh, as usual in these case you can’t see the forest for the trees. An ordinary man has no means of deliverance. Blinded by science. 😎

Good wiki skills, however. Credit where credit is due. 😬
