Equipment Rack


Does it make sense to spend several thousands of dollars on a equipment rack, if Stillpoints are used under every component?

You seem to respond to every comment but yet I asked what is the conflict of interest with selling me a spring?  A positive or negative thread about your "product" .And again if i bid the 2 dollars for your "tweek" you wouldnt sell it to me? 

 Again dazed and confused ....

OK, I've changed my mind.

Where are the moderators?  This thread is screaming for some heavy editing.  It's a shame to see a discussion on such an important subject as racks degenerate into personal attacks.  Sistrum and Geoff Kait should take their dispute off the forum.  It isn't advancing either of you.

For what it's worth, I recognize the critical importance of racks and footers.  I have also tried AudioPoints under many components but have yet to find a place where they were an improvement.  Different yes, but not an improvement.  I could say the same about a whole host of other footers such as half a dozen Herbie's doodads, many different cones (brass, aluminum, ceramic etc.), Sorbothane, and all sorts of other materials.  The only keepers to date have been wood products, either solid wood or plywood.  I haven't tried very many commercial equipment racks due to the expense, but I have been pleased with a Sound Anchors steel stand for my turntable (with a wood platform on top).  I also use Sound Anchors amp stands but all other electronics are on wood stands or racks.

"Oh, you want an explanation of how it works? OK....give me a couple hours and I'll make something up. Whether it has any grounding in science (or hell, reality for that matter) is irrelevant -- it's an explanation, right? Gimme a break. Maybe you should "teleport" yourself back to whatever planet you came from (and take your Peter Belt science textbooks with you)."


Ouch! Very ouch!
