Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Mechanical grounding or isolation from vibration has been a hot topic as of late.  Many know from experience that footers, stands and other vibration technologies impact things that vibrate a lot like speakers, subs or even listening rooms (my recent experience with an "Energy room").  The question is does it have merit when it comes to electronics and if so why?  Are there plausible explanations for their effect on electronics or suggested measurement paradigms to document such an effect?

If the shear velocity is to high it will burn the hair on your ears. We have tested many. Brass is the metal of music.Tom

Whoa! What? So now it’s shear velocity, not shear wave? This entire conversation is burning my ears. As for brass I’m sorry to be the one to inform you guys, but you’re deaf. Apparently you’ve reached what I like to call a local maximum. Good luck with all that.

have a nice day

I expected that answer. No suspense.

It’s always the same with you guys. "What about this. What about that?"

;-)

cheers

Mirror mirror....

Actually it’s not mirror, mirror. You’re the one who keeps demanding, what about this, what about that? 

Have a nice day

And you keep dodging without adding any novel data to the conversation.  I suggest you encourage end users of your products to chime in.  I like hearing from end users who have fiddled in this domain.  So, back to the regularly scheduled programming.....

what makes you think brass is better than anything else?

Brass saxes are the metal of music BTW.
