Alrighty,
I heard, on my way own the stairs, that my floorstanders are coupling into the floor too much and probably p-ing off the neighbors. Just so you know, chaps in Canada, that CT are selling these :
Grid Iron Step Floor Tiles, 24 x 24-in | Canadian Tire
Chop some to fit under, off I go (hopefully!).

OK, try:
Home | Canadian Tire
And then search for:
"Grid Iron Step Floor Tiles"
I think that their web site does dynamic changes with searches.
I wish we had a store like Canadian Tire down here.

I believe that the same thing (BTW, the 1st link works for mr), is available in more colourful tiles as a childrens floor mat product. I picked up a tile of yellow and red for $2 at a garage sale, and am using them as protective surfaces for my driver production. I have a friend that has even more colours as he has a ~14x14' room tiled with them.

Yes, the session id in the link confirms this.
( Still) Can't connect to any CanTire links--- just me?
Go to canadiantire.ca and search for "grid iron step"
So - three layers under my floorstanders and there is a profound difference in low-end response. They are no longer as badly floor-coupled as before and hence the overwhelming <100Hz has abated. However, there are still vibrations being transferred to the floor (far less though!) and I'm wondering: one layer of mat, a thick block of granite/other hard substance and then more foam?
