Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Just cut to the chase and listen to a Sony walkman like Mr. Vibrations and all these problems solved except for Walkman vibrations of course.

The human hand coupled with the footwear below provides the penultimate isolation for audio purposes:

You are right and I am wrong; however, understand I use isolation in the loosest sense for all Audiogon community backgrounds. The correct term that Star Sound uses on its platforms are "Energy transfer systems". Is Star Sound into sales or consulting?? With that in mind, you get the gist I believe about savvy name engineering. Thanks for bringing this to our attention though!!! The important thing Agear is what you try may not work for me or Geof. You really have to try the product in your system and in your own sound room for a few weeks minimum and that is all that is important no matter what you want to call your approach to vibration control. I told my son that Star Sound Technology platforms are just great big peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and he gets it.

More importantly, if your wife and kids can hear a difference in your system with and without springs then you are onto something.  

I’m utterly unconcerned with seismic vibration, although I do have vibrapods under things and a set of groovy cones (had those for many years…they look GREAT) under my preamp to add ventilation and because they look cool. All costing me very little money. Maybe I’ve addressed this issue accidentally in my home rig, but in live concert situations using 1000 watt amps and subs, I simply don’t see that any isolation potential exists. My main beef is with claims of substantial and audible improvements from uber expensive racks and $500 metal feet. Silliness in my view, and Barry Diament seems as delusional as geoffkait, although that might be a stretch. Note that I use guitar amps that have the speakers in the box with the amp…seismic indeed.

Seismic is good unless you are performing SEM and need absolute stillness and then maybe springs make sense or something along these lines:  http://www.kuzma.si/zerovibe-6050p.html . Speaking of 1000 watts and subs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5hBXr3aJus

I am still waiting to hear from you or anyone else a corollary in audio. Furthermore, even if you could lock into a given finding, would blinded audio nerds or lay people know the difference?

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before in this thread, if not, I’ve mentioned it elsewhere so here it is again:

We own a Scully LP mastering lathe equipped with a Westerex 3D cutter head. You can see it on our facebook page. The lathe sits on a special anti-vibration platform via a set of adjustable stainless steel points. The platform in turn sits on a custom table built for the lathe that also has adjustable points going into the floor. Now the lathe, platform and table were built about 1948 (the cutter head about 1959). Clearly they understood the issues of vibration affecting performance that long ago.

Are suggesting that things that we knew nearly 70 years ago ago is no longer knowledge? Or are you just not aware that the history of stands and things like anti-vibration platforms and Tip-Toe-style points have been around a whole lot longer than you thought?? Clearly the effects are measurable (and audible too) and its not rocket science as you’ve been suggesting.
