Component isolation


Let’s say you’re going to add isolation feet to a component with no moving parts, such as a preamp, phono stage, DAC, amp, tuner, etc. 

Which one is most critical to the extent would get your attention first?

“If I could explain it to the average dude they wouldn’t have given me the Nobel prize.”


Oddly enough, no Nobel Prize winner ever said that.

On the other hand Richard Feynman, who really did win a Nobel Prize, actually did say, "If you can't explain something in simple terms you don't understand it." https://kottke.org/17/06/if-you-cant-explain-something-in-simple-terms-you-dont-understand-it



Or as the T-shirt says : "I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you."
Hello all,
As a manufacturer of pneumatic isolation devices (feet), am I permitted topost our website which contains pertinent isolation/vibration information, and an informative White Paper? If so, can our technical director also join in on this discussion? Thanks in advance for your feedback and consideration.
I've never seen a convincing argument that vibration isolation effects electricity. Sure, turntables and speakers, but not sure electronics goes beyond the "seems like" rationalization.

Don't tease me, bro! The Nimbus Sub Hertz Platform is no longer available! http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina24.htm
Can't imagine why this didn't catch on.

I'm with you. I have three of them and they all work great!!!  ;)))
