vibration control

"They aren't telling people to stick bare wire into a wall socket while standing in a pan of water.

However, the more expensive wire you use the better the experience."

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm You couldn't mean what I read. lol

The human ear is a very sensitive instrument. No argument. However, what our ear hears comes out of a loudspeaker. A loudspeaker only responds to voltage. Voltage is measurable. If the voltage (waveform) applied to the speaker is identical, with or without vibration, then the sound it emits is identical regardless of what Rodman thinks.

"If the voltage (waveform) applied to the speaker is identical, with or without vibration, then the sound it emits is identical regardless of what Rodman thinks."

Your statement is music to my ears. Rodman thinks? I didn't know he did. That's even more scary.

So the construction of the speaker cabinet has no effect on the sound?

Does the amount of bracing not matter? Or the type of materials used to make the cabinet not matter?There's no difference in vibration control between an inert aluminum cabinet and a presswood one?

It's all marketing, a myth ?

Maybe I don't get it,but I think the waveform would be altered by any of the above.

Also,a full range speaker on a suspended wood floor compared to the same speaker on a solid concrete floor will sound the same if the voltage stays the same?

There are some very sophisticated vibration control devices used in industry and in the lab that I guess aren't necessary then, all that's necessary is to make sure the waveform is kept stable?

Am I missing something?

Is the holy grail then voltage stabilization?

I would agree that the quality of the power to our gear needs as much help as it can get, and I am firmly in that camp.

But unless you work on vibration control,including the speakers, room, components and the wires,you won't know how good it can get.

The issue is the SOUND that reaches your ears. Vibration control can be crucial in other endeavors, but we are talking about SOUND produced from a loud speaker. How much vibration, if any, can there be in a stereo amp. And if there is virbration, how does that effect the sound. And if the inputs into the speaker are identical, why would the outputs be different. Even if one input came from a vibrating amp.
