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?

Geoff,

Will change amplitude of frequency just as your products do, as do the Townshend . Nothing new for sure just a nicer smaller package.

Should have clarfied the above with the additional words ..will reduce the amplitude of some frequencies of any device that rests on these "isolators"or others of the same type. Tom

Uh, hopefully the amplitude of some frequencies will be reduced. That’s kind of the whole point. ALL frequencies above the Fr of the isolating system will be reduced in amplitude. One assumes you’re referring to VIBRATION frequencies not AUDIO frequencies. Note to self: Why am I getting a bad feeling?
I am not getting thru..like in your stuff all polarities of shear are being reduced and as a result information is being reduced in the device.Your methods put a full nelson choke hold on any device whether active or passive. Tom

That has to the silliest thing I’ve ever heard. Where do you come up with this stuff? I’ve asked you at least twice to explain what you mean by "polarities of shear" but so far you only repeat the same mantra over and over again. If you cannot explain it find someone who can.
