You are correct. You really can't protect from 'airborne' vibrations. However there is a lot of other equipment or room floor induced vibrations which can be audible by thier effect on the signal, especially tubes and phono playback. So proper isolation is important. And you can eliminate most of the airborne vibrations by using the volume control. :-)
Isolation for tube amps
I've read the some of the threads on isolation platform ideas for amps, but am wondering how one can isolate the amps (and other equipment) from ambient sound pressure? It seems that this would be the most predominant force to isolate? I don't know how anyone would be able to isolate one's components from this force unless the components were in the other room. Any ideas?
