Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil

Tom, don’t be such a big isolation denier. Not only is vibration isolation enjoying its 25 year anniversary for audiophiles, the whole isolation phenomenon has resulted in the introduction of spectacularly effective devices, what with active isolation, two stage isolation, magnetic levitation and so forth. How many audiophiles do you think employ some isolation device or another, 50,000? Come on, don't be such a fuddy duddy. Join the isolation revolution! 🍾 If you think a deprogrammer might be helpful I’ll see if I can arrange for one.🤖

The problem is you lumping everything under the umbrella covering term ...isolation. Not much can be isolated if anything especially when it comes to energy running thru solids..The solutions to the problems must be looked for.. outside the confines of the term "isolation". The simple term "isolation" limits the whole process of the understanding and reduction of interfering energy.  Tom

Tom, it’s actually you who can’t keep the argument straight. I am not (rpt not) lumping everything together. Far from it. Did you conveniently forget? I have always argued that both isolation and some combination of damping and draining of energy away from the system are important. It’s you who is lumping everything together by dismissing or ignoring isolation and putting all your ducks in the grounding/coupling bucket. If LIGO had blinders on like you do they couldn’t have been able to observe gravity waves. Come on over to the good guys. You bought into the whole Michael Green "Let the vibrations free to roam around the room" silliness long enough. Enough is enough. You’ve been a good soldier. You can come out now. The war is over. 🎉

You advocate blunt force solutions such as springs and damping which blinds you from looking and understanding how energy runs and then returns thru solids and their intersecting  boundaries.  Keep looking.
