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?

We can hear it, we can measure it, there have been thousands of experiments over the years, some written up in peer reviewed audio engineering journals.
Vibration effects in equipment are orders of magnistude more significant than the tiny differences cables make (unless they're just clumsy cheap tone controls due to their reactance) BUT unless you intend tapping your cabinet along with the music, just put another tune on, pour a drink & enjoy
