Not wanting to disagree with Andrew either I would say you have to experiment.
In my old house the speakers were downstairs and spiked through carpet to contact (ground) to a concrete floor, this was fine.
However, on moving to a new home with speakers upstairs I found this arrangement to be detrimental to sound quality as here they were spiked through carpet to a modern chipboard-type floor panel.
At reasonable volume there was too much in the way of vibration being transmitted into those floor boardings.
Rectifying this problem by fitting rubber (sorbothane) feet to the speakers improved things significantly, in my opinion.
Go experiment
OOps. Just realisedwhen this was first posted. Anyway hopefully it will be of some use to somebody.
