hi i had the same concerns with totem forests. both are very unstable standing and can be pushed by crowling toddler or baby at ease. previously i had vandy 1c on sound anchor stands that were substantially more stable.
i would encourage heavier speakers with larger footprint in case if it's time for upgrade :-)
otherwise i did the following:
1. took foot x foot x 2" mdf
2. removed the screws from the ball stands leaving stands in place
3. took three nails large enough to reach from screw holes to the floor having speakers standing on it's balls:-) The nails should be small enough though to play between the chassis and floor so you'll be able to use marker to mark your drilling points.
4. drill three holes that you've marked on each mdf board
5. Use large enough screw instead of supplied stock one to go through the MDF pannel, ball and the stand and securing the speaker cabinette standing on the balls to the mdf pannel. you may start with pinching a nail first under desired corner before you start drilling.
6. I used 4 screws instead of speaker spikes to create 4-point secure stand. you can actually adjust their position depending on the surface to level them perfectly.
7. Load your speaker with send or anything heavy(lead shot if secured from dust) and your speakers are now hard to push and standing it's originally supplied 3 balls just like they're meant to stay on the floor.
