Beautiful!!!  You have art and music compliment each other.  It must be a awesome experience immersed yourself in it. I have my setup in the basement too.  In dealing with the cement floor, I put a piece 2x12 pine with spikes on the cement floor (carpeted with thick pads).  Then, the speaker stand on top of the 2x12 also with spikes.  It sounded the best among other things I tried.  You have subfloor plus the floor glued to the cement, which may be very close but I somehow suspect the speaker's natural vibrations may still be reduced more than desirable.  I wonder if you already tried to tune that further.  CC
