What are the feet you've got the stands on? I need something like that for my floorstanders...
Two things:
- Stands https://www.atacama-audio.co.uk/p/audition-300-speaker-stands-pair
- Isolation feet https://isoacoustics.com/home-audio-isolation-products/gaia-series/gaia-iii/
The stands are just to get them to the right height, but they're pretty IMHO.
The feet I added to prevent damage to the hardware floor, and yes to help isolate the speakers from vibrations in the floor but far more to limit the amount of bass travelling from the speakers through the floor (i.e. don't offend the downstairs neighbours by avoiding turning the floor into a large bass drum where possible).

Those speaker grilles now that they're fully in their place.
The amp is now mostly out of sight on the left hand shelves, at least it's not been given prominence in any way and is easy to ignore.
The grilles look different depending on the light, time of day, angle of light from the window, intensity. Sometimes the cones are extremely visible and the brass mesh is invisible, sometimes the brass mesh is shining so bright that it's hard to imagine there's a large speaker cone behind it. The walnut looks lush always.
