General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Depends on the use, the circumstance and who built it.

If were talking already being on a suspended floor, the only purpose I could imagine would be for isolation. I do know of a fellow in Vancouver who had his entire audio room isolated from the building he lived in, cost him a fair penny. This was only because he lived in an apartment building and didn't want any outside interferance for his system (very large condo, nice big room maybe 20 x 25 and a separate HT outside of the room).
I'm assuming you're actually referring to a basement room on concrete. Some HT builders recommend placing a subfloor over this for enhanced bass reproduction. Completely accurate to life reproduction is not always necessarily the key in HT design however. Some feel that concrete floor is the best way to go for an audio room. Mine is carpet over slab.
