Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Nathan Winer: Ralph, I absolutely do not think I know everything. I do think that everything that affects audio fidelity is known, and so there’s no mystery, but I know very well that I don’t know everything. A list of just what I know that I don’t know would be pretty long. Then there’s the stuff I don’t even know that I don’t know. That said, if you think people like cockrum and kait have anything to offer that will increase my knowledge of audio, I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.

to which atmasphere responded,

"Regarding kait, I invite you to reread some of my prior comments that were directed at you; you should already know I don’t take him seriously."

The feeling’s mutual, big guy but I know where you’re coming from. You’ve just remained in the past a little too long and haven’t quite caught up with reality. No biggie as far as I’m concerned. The fact that you actually take Nathan seriously speaks volumes.

With all due respect,

Good luck with that.  

I can't even find someone who can measure my feet in a manner that  guarantees comfort.  Just a basic fit to help toss out the really bad candidates but not enough to determine the final choice.

Hopefully  the salesman can tell  me which one fits best based on the measurements but not take it personally if I end up disagreeing.

It's clear that Geoff Kait doesn't understand what nulling is or how it works. I'll give you a clue: it doesn't "measure" anything. Here's a more complete explanation, not that you're interested in learning anything but maybe others are:

In the past I sold Hafler amps and they sounded good. But I never liked them enough to own one..they were good enough to use on subs but never full range in a top shelf system. Tom

Can you null out grain and fill in with creamy texture and body? Can you null out one polarity of shear so there is a unified direction and a singular speed? Tom
