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?

I proved my case or at least offered good evidence. If you jump on the floor and hear a corresponding sound or feel corresponding movement guess what? Movement caused the floor to vibrate and make a sound.

Or play music with a good subwoofer or other speaker with good bass and use the aforementioned water test or just listen and see/hear. Its not rocket science.

In fact its a much easier and cheaper problem to address than room acoustics/room nodes. An Auralex subdude platform costs less than $100 and is very effective when needed. Maybe that's what Ethan is afraid of?  Cheap competition is a bugger.

Check the testimonials on Amazon or other sites. Are all those people deluded? Ethan apparently thinks so.



Case closed.


What’s hilarious is the companies Ethan attacks, in some sort of screwball marketing ploy, are not even his competitors. Is no one safe? What's next, is he going to go after high end cables and aftermarket fuses? 

They are his competitors. Use of their products lessens the need for his services.
If he wants to go after his real competitors he should probably consider going after Mr. Green. In fact I would pay to see that.

My advice would be worry about yourself not others and be a better listener (to what people say not just the music).
