Discribed here is a cheap speaker isolation setup that significantly improves the transparency of the speaker. Its almost like the speakers have vanished with my paradigm 15B,s.
The mod involves rubber street hockey pucks, soft practice lacrosse balls, athletic tape, cinder blocks and electrical tape.
The balls are overtaped with pressure to the hockey pucks. These isolators are then placed on the cinder block (I used 2 in back and 1 in front). The speaker is then placed carefully on the isolators. Electrical tape strands are then used to hold the speaker through the hole on the cinder block.
Using a ball that is slightly harder than the soft hockey puck wicks vibrations towards the puck and the similarity in density reduces reflections/speed changes.
Technically a product designed for this may work better, but these work quite well.

I think racquet balls on a hockey puck resting on a sorbothane sheet on a granite slab might also work.
