First, I'd like to state up front that I am associated with Starsound Technologies, the maker of resonance control devices that address what isolation devices fail to do. They are the maker of the original Audiopoints, which do not cost anywhere near $450, have engineered geometry, and do the best job that a brass cone can do. However, when looking for a speaker device, the Sistrum Platforms are the best that I've found for my system, and they work really well on it, and many others' systems too. There are platforms or racks made by Sistrum that are even more effective than the Audiopoints for components. The platforms and racks provide a much greater degree of vibration evacuation than even the very good Audiopoints do. But the Audiopoints are used as contact points in all these platforms and racks, due to their great effectiveness.
You'll find some users on this forum, who have the Sistrum racks, platforms, Audiopoints, and Sonoran cables. They have posted their happy results many times in the past, on these pages. A cone is not a cone, a rack is not a rack, and a wire is not a wire. The engineering of these things makes a difference, and they cannot all be lumped into the same category. If you want the best, at reasonable but not cheap prices, then look into the Sistrum stuff. It is not the most expensive, but it will be the most effective at removing unwanted vibrations from your system, in nearly all cases.
Energy seeks ground via the fastest route possible. Provide a rapid-transfer path to ground, and the vibrations will move away all by themselves. This is basic physics. It's like a "short-circuit" for vibrations, and it works. Try one piece, and you'll come back for the whole package. I've seen it time and again.
I know some people promote other vibration control methods. But I feel certain that they have never tried a Sistrum. It is not possible to group this product in with other products that claim to do "similar" things. This product line stands alone in what it can do so effectively.
I'm confident about this because I use it, and I know what it does. I'm not speculating. In a world of hype, there can be things that really do what they claim. This is one of them. It may not be the answer to all things, but if vibrations, and their effects on your sound are your concern, you should investigate these products.
