Can't find it now but...

They built their live room suspended on old tires. Laid them down horizontally very tight under the en"tire" foot print of the room. The said they filled them up with fabric scraps and any other mushy material they could find. Who's to say if it's perfect...or safe...but apparently it works.

Not something I would recommend, just pointing out another cat skinning method.
Without proper loading of the spring, i can guarantee that the TL is worse for music than wihtout it. The impact isolation will be improved, bu not the music isolation.
