What is a good base for speakers


Fussing with setting up a new system in basement. My vintage ADS L710's sit on original stands that don't have fittings for spikes. As the stands sit on a carpeted floor, they rock a lot (no pun intended). I'm thinking of some sort of base to settle them down. Looking for suggestions of a material appropriate for stability  - any experience with wood butcher block, granite or slate cutting boards as a base? More DIY than expensive. Thanks for any suggestions.

If they are the open backed metal stands add stick-on footers in a 3-point configuration (2 in the back and 1 in the middle of the front cross brace).

They sell little rubber stick-on footers @ hardware stores and online.

Whatever the stands are like 3-point/tripod support should help stabilize them.
