Does anyone use wood for vibration control?


What kind of wood have you found to be best?

Hi uberwaltz

If you want give me a list of your equipment again and let me take a look at how they're built. Also what are they sitting on (shelving wise)?

Would be nice to do a few tune ups on Agon so people can see how easy it is.

MG.

Amp is Ayre EX8
Cdp is C.E.C 3100

Rack is homemade.
Consists of 4 x 24×18x2 maple shelves basically with all thread at all 4 corners so infinitely adjustable for height and level.
But this means all shelves are not individual isolated.
Which is why I wanted to try different footers etc under the main components.

One day I will get round to building a better mousetrap! Really the legs I would like to come up with something better.

I suggest you read a bit about Tesla’s work, too. If for nothing else, but because Marconi was using a number of his patents for his work. Seventeen, if I remember correctly but I may be way off (many years have passed since I was in early grades of elementary school where I learned it).

>>>>I’ll go with your notion that you may be way off and leave it at that. 
geoffkait,

Go with whatever you feel appropriate.

In fact, I think that was Tesla himself who said to his nephew something to the effect of "Marconi is a good guy, he is using seventeen of my patents." Of course, those were tales told to children so they may not be true.

Hi uberwaltz

I'm doing a system over seas right now so will be back when I'm done with him, but I did get to look up your components. I like them!! They should tune up nicely.

see you in a few unless they keep me a while, if so I'll come up tomorrow
