I'd rather not lower the whole speaker itself since that would look rather weird, lol. But then, I'm not sure how to tackle the angle issue altogether. I know very basic woodworking, so I don't think I'd be able to create an angled bottom support. I can do metal fabrication and welding, but I'd rather check to see if I can buy a pre-made solution.

Anyone have a good link to perhaps angled isolation pads that would hold up to 50lb speakers?
I am using these for non-angled isolation at Bill D's suggestion. I also have 4 pair of EdenSound Terracone footers with EAR Isodamp pads further applied which work well but the latter won't give you angled forward positioning per say and the former only will if you use 2 stacked in the back and 1 in the front...

You could also look at something like this:
