Solid Tech - A new brand for racks and stands

So how would you relief the effects of continual self induced resonance and airborne vibration? Tom

I have both the Radius and Rack of Silence, and all the "accessories".

With Radius, you can add additional springs under each shelf to further isolate the shelf from floor vibration.

With the Rack of Silence, the "shelves" lock into the posts. The reference level rack of silence give you the choice to convert the middle two sections into spring supported shelves. You get two sets of springs with different load limit. These springs are heavy-duty types, so you don't have to worry about them getting loose over time.

With heavy equipment, you don't use the springs.

I have my Pass X350.5 (140 lbs) sitting on top of 4 discs of silence on top of a rack of silence amp stand and it works just fine.

The shelf is made of cross wood beams, so I don't know how the static would be transferred. As for heat, the cross wood beams allow good ventilation. I added one additional shelf to my rack so I have 5 shelves holding my components. They are extremely close to each other, and I don't have any heat issue.

If I understand the question from Theaudiotweak... no rack platform can affect the internal self-induced vibrations at the source, to limit effect on the source. They can only affect the out-bound and in-bound from the point of contact. You would need to tear apart and modify a poorly made offending source component or chassis... pertaining to the source (of vibration). Airborne vibration cannot be controlled in an open architecture design, as the sides and front/back are open. An enclosed baffle would need to be placed between the air movement and the component to minimize... but that goes beyond a common audio rack and turns more into a chamber. But a shelf could help minimize transference to and from the frame and to and from the platforms.

Why store what is self generated? Why slow or impede the transfer, of the negative after effects of what is airborne? All of which is condoned with material selection and geometry. Remember what is stated as inert[by material, geometry or both] is also in motion...but at a much slower rate of transfer. Tom
