Tweak:
Of course anything in the listening room is exposed to airborne vibration. However the rest of the system (placed elsewhere) is not, to a much greater extent than if it were placed in the listening room and incorporated with anything that Sistrum produces. You need to get real and why are you even attempting to argue this point?
Draining airborne vibration once it effects a unit is far less productive than eliminating the airborne vibration in the first place (surprised that you have not figured this out, given 35 years to do so).
My speakers are wired with single runs of 26 gauge solid core wire which is contained in a very thick Teflon surround and the amount of energy transmitted back to the power amps is much, much, much less than they would receive if they (the amps) were instead situated in the listening room (common sense dictates that the difference is @ least 100 to 1 and it's probably considerably greater than this).
Again, I find it odd that one would go to the great expense of using special racks/shelving and then end up placing them in the listening environment.
Warren: In the dozen, or so, places that I have lived over the years there was a suitable closet (or adjoining room) in all but two of them (most rooms are located off hallways which contain closets and the next best thing is to use an in-room closet). I'm married, have had kids living in the home, etc., and as far as I am concerned most closets end up being filled with junk unless used for a better purpose. The hall closet was used for linens and a bit of my clothing which has since found better homes in a couple of bed chests and a shelf in my wife's clothing closet. We are planning on converting a living room closet to store LP's as 90% of it is also filled with junk. Power to the closet I use is supplied by my two power conditioners, though having a line installed would have cost much less tha the two inexpensive conditioners.
I am not dissing Sistrum products @ all, just the ridiculous claims which often accompany them, (guess Pogo was right afterall:-). I use Neuance shelving on a modified rack, so am not unaware of the basic pricipals, but instead am making the point that much better results can be had by placing such rack/shelf systems outside of the listening environment.
If you are attempting to address vibration then first do so (as much as is possible) at the source and then follow up treating the symtoms of what's left over.
