Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

I agree with NoNoise. I find it interesting that the original intention of this thread doesn’t seem to have been uncovered in these past two and a half months.

That’s not very illuminating. The original intention of this thread was to troll. This thread was started by the OP immediately following the removal of a previous very similar thread by the moderators. I’m not wishing to judge things too harshly but it appears the troll was successful. 😀

The original troll: "Mechanical grounding or isolation from vibration has been a hot topic as of late.....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?"  Geez, give me a break!

Looking back I'm not sure it was in this discussion that I excluded turntables from audio gear that doesn't benefit from isolation. I usually mention that. Of course, it's incredibly obvious that record players will skip if you stomp around. So it's disingenuous to pick on that one situation when it's clear that the real BS is selling "isolation products" for use under wires and CD players etc.

Geoff Kait said, "every environment is different and vibration sources and amplitudes and frequencies vary all over the place. Thus, any attempt to explapolate the measured performance of an isolation device's effect on the audio signal and say this is what you will experience in your system is naive."

LOL, dude, I'll be glad to see your one lone example where isolation makes a difference. Just one. But as I already said, it's clear you don't have a clue how to even measure this stuff. Do you not see how foolish you look? Even the other believers in this thread are laughing at you.

Nathan, Don’t you think I know you’re a loudmouthed and naive troll? Albeit a not overly swift one. I see through you like you were made of glass.
