Does anyone use wood for vibration control?

What kind of wood have you found to be best?

@glubson, hey man, music is vibration (is vibratory even a real word?), and hi-fi components musical instruments. To prevent vibration from reaching Walkmen and Discmen (and all other components, even those nasty HEA high-mass dinosaurs) is to kill the music they make. Don’t kill the music, let vibrations run free, like you and me.

glubson catches on fast. Yes, the Sony Walkman is not (rpt not) susceptible to vibration. If you know what to listen for you can hear it. Way to go, glubson! 🤗 Not to mention my 12 ounce system does not have a whole lot of mass and stuff hanging off it to even vibrate. If you could hear what I hear with my ears....

Note to self. I still haven’t got an answer to my question why mechanical feedback in the audio system is dismissed, ignored or overlooked by tuners. Do tuners just sweep it under the rug?

Just I little update. As with some of the topics here that I get involved in I start receiving emails wanting to know more. One of those emails was from a member here who has been reading the TuneLand archives, especially the Jim Bookhard reviews and articles. After my talk with him we've started reposting Jim's work. I'll give a link to this area on TuneLand after a few of the articles get republished.

stay tuned!

geoffkait,

"If you could hear what I hear with my ears...."
I am hoping not to. The voices I hear are usually real.
