Rel Does Not Recomment Isolation Stands


This came as a surprise. I had just assumed that it should be isolated. Then I discover I was wrong. after doing some research for isolation for mine.  Even though I am NOT electronics engineer I think this is an interesting subjet idea. Pardon my utter ignorance. I should have known there was an opposing view. Always is. Just didn't think of it

What do they say about iso pads like Auralex Subdude as opposed to stands?   Not much elevation there. 

I can think of any number of reasons why you wouldnt want a speaker (sub or not) moving even the tiniest bit in space. What happens to the energy when you put a speaker on springs? Or is it like the Harbeth theory that the energy is drained through the vibration of the cabinet? A theory which to me makes absolutely no sense.
