I came up with the idea to secure my speakers to the stands with Bungee cords. It was originally intended as quake protection but seems to be good for sound reasons as well.
Any method of securing your speakers to their stands will result in an improvement(ie: focus, tightening of image, etc). Suspending them, in any manner, will have the opposite effect, allowing the speaker cabinet to react in response to the movement of the system's cones(simple physics).
Rodman99999- I agree with your comments. Recently I used blue tak to couple my speakers to the stands to keep them, safe from falling over. I immediately noticed better sound-tighter bass and more detail. Very effective.
