Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Back at ya, Slick

I just wanna know about, the rooms behind
your minds,
Do I see a vacuum there, or am I going blind?
Or is it just remains from vibrations and echoes
long ago,
Things like ’Love the World’ and ’Let your fancy
flow’,
Is this true? Please let me talk to you. Let me
talk to you.

I have lived here before, the days of ice,
And of course this is why I’m so concerned,
So where do I purchase my ticket,
I would just like to have a ringside seat,
I want to know about the new Mother Earth,
I want to hear and see everything,
I want to hear and see everything,
I want to hear and see everything.
Aw, shucks,
If my daddy could see me now.

It’s not hard to detect vibrations. Just set a container of water on the subject and watch for ripples. It’s natures natural vu meter for vibrations. Of course be careful not to spill.

Gosh, there an echo in here? I said the same thing on this thread a couple weeks ago. I also mentioned it in the notorious similar thread that went belly up a few weeks ago, when I said, "You can see the *seismic* vibrations in the surface of the water in a glass on top of a preamp, etc..." Of course, and more to the point, the glass of water can be used to "measure" how effective the isolation device under test is by, you know, seeing the difference in the amount of ripples in the surface of the water with and without isolation. This test will also demonstrate that seismic vibrations are obviously more powerful than the so-called induced vibrations that the component might produce. Hel-loo!

And earlier on this thread I wrote,

"Funny story. A friend of mine said watch this. He was sitting in a chair on the other side of the room from his stand with a CD player on the top. Next to the CD player was a glass of water. Next, he began tapping his knee with his finger very softly. Immediately ripples appeared on the surface of the water in the glass, synchronized with the tapping."

Hi Geoff,

Proud to have moved up to "Slick".

I’m all out of lysergic acid diethylamide. lol

I said I’ll tell you my name, you got to let me in
You can be the sinner and I’ll be the sin
I’ll take what I want and its easy to see I got everything
Everything
I’ll show you what I got
When you tell me what you need
So put ya money where ya mouth is
I’ll show you what I got
When you tell me what you need
So put your money where your mouth is
Come on, yeah
Show me
I’ll show you what I got
When you tell me what you need
So put your money where your mouth is
Watch out, watch out
I said yeah

I found this to be inspirational in this case.

Best to you Geoff,
Dave

Whoa! What?!
