So far, research has been done on various methods of isolating the speaker. The most shocking thing that was found was the number of conflicting designs and viewpoints on the competency of the designs. The biggest of these was the application of spikes present in many of the designs. Many designers claim that this will vastly improve the quality of the sound. However, the online magazine Audioholics says that at best they "seem[s] to have a noticeable effect", though depending on the situation they are used in, research "indicate[s]d that cones are of doubtful use if the intention is to stop vibrations passing from the speaker to the stand." Based on this disagreement, a decision has been made that spikes will not be used in any tests. Pictured below are stands with different spike setups incorporated on them.
