Vibration


Ever hear of putting front end gear on separate isolation platforms
On the floor instead of a rack?

Electrons and atoms as they move generate vibration. You don't want to trap the vibration you want to provide a way for it to leave.Tom
Transistors are affected by vibration, so is the amp's internal wiring, among other things. I have isolated a great many solid state and tube amps, maybe hundreds, including John Curl's JC-1s, the big Jeff Rowland amp, the really big 200 lb Classe amp, CTC Bar-B-Q amp, the BWS mono tube amps with outboard power supplies (600 lb delivered), etc.
So you isolated the amp from itself? How'd you do that? I know how I do that but it ain't isolation because that ain't possible.How's the lateral stability of that spring? Tom
Huh is also my response to isolation claims. If you have a band pass of 3hz to 6hz provided by a spring system how do you deal with the other 94% or more of frequency's that are self generated by the electronics and left to remain. How do they get out? What about them there vibrations beating around in their cage with no place to go? How do you deal with all of that? Just wondering. Tom
