What is the actual finish on your rack? From the pic, it looks like an oiled finish, like that used on many real wood veneered speaker cabinets.
If it is an oil finish, the oil may have slightly dissolved a bit of the isolation foot material and acted as a carrier to create the stain. Application of a light solvent, like naptha (Goo-Gone, Zippo fluid, etc.), or mineral spirits may be able to pull it back out.
I wouldn't sand, unless absolutely necessary. I also don't use steel wool around any of my electronics--especially speakers. Steel wool creates metallic "fines" which are magnetic, and will be picked up by anything having a magnetic field. 3M/Scotch makes non-metallic Scotch-Brite pads for finishing. Available in any paint dept. at places like Lowe's/Homey Depot, etc. They come in different "grits", just like steel wools or sandpapers.
