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?

Hey, what?! No need for all the anger, dude. Sounds to to be you’re channeling Aqualung, spitting out pieces of his broken luck and everything. Can I suggest if you’re so obsessed with measurements why don’t YOU measure it? Has anyone noticed, Pseudo skeptics always demand measurements but they never actually DO any themselves. Why is that, do you think? 😍
That makes no sense.  The charge is directed at the industry types like yourself.  Mirror mirror.....lol.

Directed at industry types like me? Earth to agear - thanks for thinking of me as an industry type but I’m not sure where you guys got the idea that manufacturers are obliged to either provide data or to make claims for their products. You want to buy a new TV? You walk into the store, look at the picture quality of a few TVs, ones you can afford presumably, and pick the one with the best picture that you can afford. It's not rocket science. There is no data, no claims by manufacturers, no demands for measurements. Why shouldn’t the same be true for audio? My guess is certain people just like to argue. Or they just don’t trust their golden ears. Look within, grasshopper.
