from carpet to hardwood

Hello.
I purchased a piar of infinity floor speakers sometime ago. These came with pointed bases purported to enhance the sound by transmitting vibes to floor thru carpet. My problem is that we are contemplating a move and our new location will have hardwood floors. Is there a good way to protect them from the bases of my speakers?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

buy 2 carpet door mats at a dollar store. That's a cheap option.

I use quarters under the spikes.
That's for audiophiles. The rest of us use nickels :D.

You can put cork, felt, rubber, or Magic Slider stick-on pads underneath the nickels
Amazon.com: Magic Sliders 04225 Grip Tip Magic Sliders-As Seen On TV: Home Improvement

For the ultimate, you can buy these:
The Madisound Speaker Store

If you can unscrew the spikes, you can replace them with rubber feet, such as here:
Case & Cabinet Feet from Parts Express

Search your local hardware store for other ideas.
