Vibration Control

@OP "Solid State" devices are full of moving parts - capacitors and transformers in particular. But in any event just because something is solid doesn't mean it doesn't resonate.

Hearsay belief not scientifically validated. 

Your head and particularly your teeth vibrate. Why not wear wrestler's protective headgear and plastic mouthpiece? Wouldn't you then hear more minute musical details?

Funny, there must be something to this. I have anti vibration control under a dozen pieces of equipment, except for my SS amp and SS preamp. And I never over thought it.

Last week I began replacing cheap vibration device under all my kit, including speakers (which I did last) with Vera-Fi LLC (VeriBlack Holes) VBHs ($199/4). I started with just my Audiolab 6000 CDT, placing one directly under the spindle and was amazed, I then put them under my EVS 1200 amp (based on dual mono ICEpower AS 1200 modules). That was a head scratcher as at first the sound was flattened/rolled off: ~ 10 minutes later everything was fine again> Could it be the VBHs needed to settle under the much heavier amp? Next my Audio Alchemy DDP-1 (DAC/Pre) a definite thumbs up. I also have the optional AA PS 5 outboard power supply, similarly amazing improvement as was the transport. Closing out (well sort of) I placed 2 each under the fronts of my Emerald Physics 3.4 open baffle speakers, but ran out of gas (76 yo) and haven’t yet added the remaining 2 to the back of the speakers. I did a review which you might be interesting in finding. I do need to add more comments after listening to Tony Bennett and Friends vol1, Eagles Hell Freezes Over on Hotel California (IMP Joe Walsh’s guitar is the best version of all their albums) and sounded spectacular, as did the rest of the album.
