Spikes have absolutely no effect on speaker frequency response - not audible or measureable

I'm assuming spikes an inch or two tall.

Spikes could prevent a buzzing/rattling sound from a wood speaker enclosure resting on a wood floor, but that's not actually the speaker's frequency response.

I use two speaker stand spikes (two on front of stands only) to tilt back my speakers. That makes the tweeters slightly off axis relative to my ears, and slightly further from my ears. Using spikes in that way does affect a tweeters frequency response.
