speaker/stand, couple or isolate?


I've read a lot about floor standing speaker interaction with the floor and whether or not isolation or coupling might be the right approach depending on the type of floor, e.g., concrete, suspending wood floor, etc. I suspect the same rules apply to the speaker and the stand as a unit but what is the common wisdom about how should standmount speakers be placed on the stand, especially the larger/heavier speakers on 4 leg sand/rice filled heavy stands where tip over is not much of a concern. Thanks.

Now what about open topped stands, the kind of stand that, for instance, Harbeths tend to be put on, where there are only four points of contact to begin with, at the corners?  Those stands are made of either metal or wood, so there's another variable...
