Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Speakers elevated on our points or platforms have an increase in image height, width and specificity even when the tweeter is above the ear canal. Dispersion is increased..You don't have less you have more. The image is almost like two overlapping spheres that allow you to see images as a whole or as a singular event within the performance ...you pick     16 by 9 performance on a wall to wall screen.  These devices remove interfering energy from the drivers and the cabinet. In another life I worked for a Thiel dealer..we were the only dealer in the state where they were located. A  heavy dense cabinet enclosure will store a lot of energy and has a long memory of the previous note that tried to come thru it. Tom

That, in and of itself, says everything.

No, it means nothing.  I think part of the take home message from Ethan is that proper engineering (particularly when it comes to room acoustics and things measurable) is more important than gucci equipment.  I myself have experience that very thing.  I have had better sound in my sound room with Bestbuy gear than gucci audiophile grade in a standard room.  You cannot trump physics.  Now, back to the matter of how modulation of vibration effects all things electrical....anyone?

Eggs ackley! There's the high end and then there's everybody else. Talk amongst yourselves. Smoke if ya got em.

Thus saith Mr. Kait whose current sonic reference is a Walkman....

Springs add another boundary layer and introduce more interfering energy.  The motion artifacts of the springs and resulting inertia when driven by the voice coil of a speaker need to be overcome by the voice coil. If you suspend all speakers from either above or below you have the same retention of interfering energy. And so is your sound.  Tom

Boy, are you confused. The isolation is achieved by the combination of mass and springs. That’s why LIGO uses many mass-on-spring devices. That’s exactly how they were able to achieve results. If there actually were ARTIFACTS they wouldn’t have been successful. Say, whatever happened to the Seismologist, you know, one that presumably knew what she was talking about? If she was smart she grabbed a hat a long time ago.
