I wish I'd have grabbed a nice stereo microscope from my alma mater when they were junkin' some many years ago for looking at styli.

Re: SDA-2B Studio, ideas for upgrading the pedestal?
Yeah I usually just install spikes
I guess my thinking was that the original cabinet material isn't the strongest. I've seen lots of spikes that get bumped and the threaded insert just destroys the surrounding wood/fiber. I guess I'll do some looking around for spikes that can get flush, which would lessen the torque on the cabinet wood if it were bumped.
The holes for the spike inserts can be hardened believe in or not with super glue, just use it around the hole and then use power grab on the inserts. This works well, I got the idea from my foosball tournament days, the edges of the goals on tornado foosball tables would chip out from time to time and if you used super glue around the edges it would soak in and harden the MDF.

Better picture of the spikes I used, they are about the same size as the original pedestal.

Re: Should I change speaker config in avr when removing sub woofer?

No, you don't need to run Audyssey every time. Audyssey almost always leaves the sub too hot. Use a separate sound meter and the manual test tones to verify that all the channels are within 1dB of each other after you run Audyssey. Change the level in the AVR, and leave the sub gain the same. That is, unless you are the max -dB for the LFE and it is still too loud. If that's the case, lower the sub gain, and rerun Audyssey. Then correct in the AVR.

If the subwoofer is going to rattle the house the volume on it is probably turned up too high.
