Anything you can put between spikes and carpet?


I've been playing around with my speaker positioning and a recurring issue that I've never quite been able to satisfactorily resolve came up again. While my speakers - Verity Fidelios - have pretty long adjustable spikes on heavy brass footers, I never feel like they're making especially good contact with the subfloor under the carpet and pad. I think I could possibly tighten up my bass response with a more solid contact. Is there anything that I could put the speakers on that would give them a more solid coupling for bass purposes? I was thinking of some heavy MDF squares, or even Corian, but then of course the board is not coupled to the floor. Any thoughts?

I use Timlub's method. And as the spikes are adjustable, I rock the speakers to figure which spikes I need to adjust to get them all seated firmly. I also use a level to set speakers.
