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?

The audio weak,

Speaker feedback is not a problem only if the audio engineer is smart enough to employ isolation. Otherwise some feedback is inevitable.

The video you provided shows how someone can perform the water in the glass experiment incorrectly, although I have to confess I didn’t think that was actually possible. The lemon, ice and stirrer damp the vibrations that might otherwise appear and the glass should be filled to the brim since the ripples appear in the surface of the water. It’s not rocket science. At least you tried. Lol

helpful hint: the ripples that appear on the surface are a little subtle, it’s not like water is sloshing around in there although someone might be sloshed. 
Not an experiment but reality as conveyed by our products in the video. We don't want a splash as none was desired or reproduced. If the energy was stored you would see ripples and as the energy built up within the confines of the container you would see a splash...there is none  because the energy is not stored but is passed thru to ground. Remove the interfering energy and you have greater dynamic contrasts and resolution. Tom.. Star Sound
Theaudiotweak,

Since you seem to be extremely enamored of the phrase polarities of shear and for some bizarre reason I haven’t figured out yet it probably time that I pointed out that earth crust motion - the seismic wave that travels along the surface of the Earth - has nothing whatsoever to do with polarities of shear or p waves or s waves, all of which are manifestations of vibrations produced deep in the earth, by the body of the earth as it were. If you guys had resisted the urge to defend yourselves and had consulted the seismologist, assuming she hasn't long thrown up her hands in frustration and left for greener pastures or, even better, had gotten her to discuss these technical aspects right here on this thread you wouldn’t seem so uh, clueless. The wave that travels along the surface of the earth has six directions of motion as I’ve already explained. Like your benefactor Micheal Green you guys are still, amazingly, hypnotized by the idea that vibration of any kind can be good for the sound.

Whereas you guys and your benefactor wish to allow vibrations to roam free - unrestrained, undamped and unisolated - I say the only good vibration is a dead vibration!

"All isolation devices sound different."

That’s exactly what I’ve been saying. And there are perfectly good reasons why they all sound different - as I’ve also been saying. The reasons are:

Isolation devices vary widely in terms of directions of isolation addressed and resonant frequency of the device, the latter dictating the effectiveness of isolation, as I just got through explaining a couple of posts ago.

Also, since seismic noise varies all over the place depending on geographic location, traffic and other factors one cannot really expect any isolation device to work the same everywhere or for every system. This is why I stated early in this thread that measurements for isolation are a bit pointless. Since you cannot generalize results.

Furthermore, many devices marketed as isolation devices are actually either coupling devices or resonators. Thus the statement that all isolation devices sound different can actually be viewed as an excellent example of a strawman argument. 

Finally. Most audiophiles continually change their systems so it's a moving train and no one should expect his sound to remain constant for very long. Thus attempts to compare isolation devices or ANY class of audio device or cable might be fruitless. 
She just...left my house after driving 18 hours for a visit on her way to a week long seminar. I showed her our video on You Tube and she said thats exactly what she expected of our technology. I showed her your responses to the thread..she just laughed as we and most others do. She will be thru again on her way back west so we can then do more analysis of our technology and discuss future applications. Tom.. Star Sound
