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?

Edit: Okay, I do understand why people who sell solutions to non-existent problems are willing to promote magical thinking. But why do consumers fall for this stuff?
Geoffkait: "I’m not terribly surprised to see Agear welcome Ethan Winer with open arms."

A definite turn for the worse.

... I'll never understand why some people are so willing to measure the wrong things and come to a wrong conclusion, when it's so easy to measure the right things and get the right conclusion!
Under these two scenarios, it's typically equally easy to be mistaken. That you don't understand that almost certainly means that you're coming to the wrong conclusions at least some of the time - and don't know it.

Speakers sit on speaker stands. They have boundaries. Energy is reflected on the external surface you see and energy is also refracted thru one material boundary into an adjacent material and its boundary. The laser will not give a read of the refraction waves that travel thru the solid material. But you can hear the influence of the refracted signal. Tom
