Why spend more than $25 per piece of equipment on vibration reduction?

when all got is a hammer, everything looks like…. a….spring….

In some cases, spending more is necessary to have a product that’s effective in isolating, decoupling or draining. Vibrapods have some isolating properties but also store resonances, therefore aren’t near as effective as more expensive, well thought out products. I’m a fan of springs and have over the years tried to make my own products using springs and have been impressed. Recently ordered some Townshend spring products after years of trying but not yet reaching the pinnacle of springs with proper damping.

Vibrapod cones are quite good.  I use them under my electronics.  That said, I use Still Points under my turntable.  

yes - magnetic levitation, air suspension

Still points are superior but at over $100 each expensive ,

better  then hockey pucks ,or vibrapods ,is from Herbies tube dampers 

his tall tenderfeet ,they are made of a special isomer from  Germany I have used these for years, very  good  for $16 don’t break the bank.
