Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Mechanical grounding or isolation from vibration has been a hot topic as of late.  Many know from experience that footers, stands and other vibration technologies impact things that vibrate a lot like speakers, subs or even listening rooms (my recent experience with an "Energy room").  The question is does it have merit when it comes to electronics and if so why?  Are there plausible explanations for their effect on electronics or suggested measurement paradigms to document such an effect?

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

"BTW- the Solid-Tech Discs of Silence arrived today. Removed one of the three springs in each of the four footers based on the weight of my Sony 5400ES player with the Svelte shelf and placed them underneath. Definitely an audible difference. I need more time to get a handle on it."

a difference for the better one assumes. Take your time.
