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?

ah, so it's a mix of science and anti audiophile conservative dogma?
You take the good with the bad. Like any organization that has people in it, its going to have politics and outright flimflam. No-one's perfect. But their goal is good engineering, and often they succeed. But if you deal with them you have to expect to do some wading, just like you do here or anywhere else.
agear OP
What I would really like to see is a video of Mr. Kaits (sic) demonstrating his technology.....

Huh? Spring based isolation devices don't move. They just sit there. There's nothing to see, silly.

LOL, yes agear. I would love to see any actual accomplishments from any of these people arguing with us! At least we know that Ralph is a knowledgeable electronics engineer. But what the heck do the others know? What are their credentials? What musical instruments do they play at a professional level? What music have they composed? What recordings have they made? What circuits have they designed? What technical papers have they had printed in mainstream publications? Why should we listen to their opinion about anything? These are all absolutely serious questions. Geoff, you can go first please. :->)

nathan, I don’t like to brag. Besides demands for credentials are stupid and prove nothing. Plus these demands for credentials do actually do reveal some sort of inferiority complex imho. On top of everything the Appeal to Authority is a logical fallacy, remember? Duh?

"These are all absolutely serious questions." You are never absolutely serious, Nathan. You are as disingenuous as they come. Do you think I don’t know who you?
