Vibration

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

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

The vibration will regenerate faster than you can impede, muddy and store. There are more effective means. Good luck. Tom
