Isolation platform for the power amps


Hi, I have Odyssey Stratos Power amp. at present, it is on the rack. In future, it plan to have Mono blocks and may put them on the floor. Which isolation platforms is appropriate? Not looking for extotic > $ 150 ones ! Thank you.

Poor, Robert. A lost little sheep. That's what happens when you follow the wrong sheep. In your case, Mr. Michael Green. Like peas and carrots. It's like he's right here. 😀

Well Jeff since it sounds like you were absent at class for quite some time while I was learning. And since your comments are beginning to make you look silly.  And of course because you "obviously" know, please explain what gravity is....
      Especially since we do not even have a completed theory "of" gravity let alone a complete model.. As the best known of the four fundamental forces "gravity" seems to be thought of as basic science and easily explainable by most people. It is not. Einstein's calculations seemed to lead to gravity being the "warping of space time", but we don't know what it is or the why of it. ALL work done with gravity calculations is like working with "Ohm's Law", which of course is no 'law", at all, is it Jeff? Or did you solve that all by your lonesome as well?
  I don't come here to argue. I come here to learn.
       Besides, without gravities effects my turntable wouldn't even exist! Would it? But maybe if I could modulate the gravitational pull at the center point of the music groove I could......................

>>>>You don’t, anyway. I’d be careful about speaking of everyone else if I were you.

As the best known of the four fundamental forces "gravity" seems to be thought of as basic science and easily explainable by most people. It is not. Einstein’s calculations seemed to lead to gravity being the "warping of space time", but we don’t know what it is or the why of it.

>>>>>Again, just because you don’t know or because you can’t explain it it’s best not (rpt not) to assume no one else does or can. Hint - gravity is the weakest force.

ALL work done with gravity calculations is like working with "Ohm’s Law", which of course is no ’law", at all, is it Jeff? Or did you solve that all by your lonesome as well?

>>>>Whatever.

I don’t come here to argue. I come here to learn.

>>>>>>>Why start now? I have come here to bury Ceasar not to praise him.

>>>>>Whatever. Psssst, the word you’re looking for is "gravity’s."

By the way, my spring based isolation systems like all spring based isolation systems are in fact anti gravity devices. If you go and measure the weight of the object on the top plate of a spring based system you'll find it weighs quite a bit less than it would just sitting on the table or whatever.

Oh, one more thing. Perhaps nothing is more well understood than gravity. At least by those who wrote the book and those who read the book, one hopes anyway. The book I'm referring to is Gravitation, published 44 years ago.

Gravitation is a physics book on Einstein's theory of gravity, written by Charles W. Misner, Kip S. Thorne, and John Archibald Wheeler and originally published by W. H. Freeman and Company in 1973. Owing to its prominence, it is frequently abbreviated MTW after its authors' initials. The book, which has more than 1200 pages, resembles a large telephone book in size and shape. The cover illustration, drawn by Kenneth Gwin, is a line drawing of an apple with cuts in the skin to show geodesics. It contains 10 parts and 44 chapters, each beginning with a quotation. The bibliography has a long list of original sources and other notable books in the field. The level of the book is advanced, with the intended audience at the graduate-level and above.

I don’t think discussions concerned with our understanding of physics is really going to help those of us concerned with effective tweaks on a purely practical level. Yes all that knowledge matters, but it is not really that helpful here. Questions  like "do you want the point of a pointed footer to feed into something that easily transmits the vibrations away from the interface"  or do  you "want massive footers that absorb the vibration and dampen it that way"  may matter more to the curious in this thread,  rather than ones grasp of special relativity matters and Einstein’s notion of gravity bending space, in the time energy plane etc.
My apologies to those who are content not (rpt not) to know how things work and who have distain for physics beyond the high school level and who have never heard of Einstein, Heisenberg, Thorne, Schrodinger, Hawking, Wheeler, Feynman, Marconi, Bohm, Bohr, Fermi, Teller, Oppenheimer and who admire audio tweak reviewers who conclude their review with the disclaimer, "I have no idea how this thing works but works it does."
