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?

"If it were up to me I’d take the whole crossover network out of the speaker and place it on an isolator."

I may very well do that. Thanks Geoff.

Have you ever seen a picture of the Thiel CS5i crossover?

Best to you Geoff,

I don't think there is much or any problem. Obsession with cable vibration is silly, but if it sells product and allows people to worry about vibration ("Damnit Marge, it's EVERYWHERE!") instead of causing trouble elsewhere, I say have at it.
No its not solved because the generated shear energy has no way out. Where there is motion there is shear thru solid materials. Even when suspended. All forms of motion are eliminated? Tom
Still no answers to direct questions. Is their some protocol against asking and answering direct real-world questions on tech-talk that I am not aware of?

I have seen that 3ft beast of a crossover and seen it repaired. We then mounted it to one of our platforms. Suggest that the resistors be replaced when the unit is removed. If you dont want to remove the xover it can be mounted to our devices placed back in the cabinet and tensioned from the bottom.  Of course the path is only completed to ground when the speakers themselves reside on points or platforms. Springs put at stop to any exit plan.

Dave I cannot answer your inquiry at this time. You could always send me your number or the versa. Tom
