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?

Your almost to 21 years and still wrong. Energy being released at a defined exit point is greater than energy trying to enter that same point. Example your mouth and your brain. Tom

"Suspending an audio device from the ceiling will never isolate the device from its self generated vibration or resonance."

I never said said it would. Besides, there are no internal self generated forces involved with the cables. Unless you want to argue that photons have force. I’ve always said you need to isolate AND damp internal self generated vibrations. Haven’t you been paying attention? That’s a rhetorical question, no need to answer.

then Tom wrote,

"The suspended device in motion ..and everything is in motion needs to dissipate the negative influences of some but not all waveforms. Some waveforms will travel the chassis but can be directed out via a copper ground strap to a mechanical/electrical ground. Without the exit point provided you will have a resonance build up even when suspended."

There are no internal waveforms in the cable to worry about. All electronics should be isolated, too. Everything should be isolated. Hel-loo!

But there are wave forms being developed within the component even when suspended. There are polarties that are part of the intended signal you want to maintain.... and some of the same original wave that travel and create polution. Those you want to exit. You meaning your stuff..cannot erase the bad without killing the good ..as your crap does. Selectivity is not a part of your devices. Keep looking. Tom

Let's try to stay on topic, shall we? I'm talking about suspending cables. Say the drama for yo mama.
Dave asked me a question and I answered him. And I am telling you to keep looking.

Cables vibrate do they not..internally and externally. You can screw up the sound of those as well. I think even suspended audio gear has wires and circuit paths that are degraded when unintended wave forms that run rampant are left with no exit. Your Play Dough is not the answer but is a part of the ongoing illness. Tom
