Measuring Vibration in Equipment


There are alot of threads on shelf material and tweeks that cut down on vibration. Is there a device that measures this vibration? I think I remember of hearing of such a tool before my audiophile days for testing crates for shipment but I cant remember what it was called. In The Complete guide to Home Audio they suggested using a stethescope. Has anyone tried this?

Hello RCM and welcome to the site. There are no rules about dealers posting and I would be very interested to know who yoo are. This thread and many others like it were started to get the best sound for our system.

The combined knowledge of this site goes well beyound magazine critics and dealers and each members specialty is based on there individual experience. You will even find that not to many people have respect for magazines or dealers.



This site is filled with very knowledgeable people with world class systems. There are a ton of regular posters and others that just pop up when a specific question needs answering. We are passionate people and sometimes topics like this are considered snake oils and get heated at times. Dont be disillusioned by this its that passion that brings us further into the hobby.

I would like to learn more about those books specifacally where too find them. Even title, author, and isbn number would be very helpfull. You might want to post more info about those measuring devices and programs. They are beyound my reach but many of the members have very dep pockets

All information at every level is appreciated and never worry about getting to technical. You might even find that you learn a few things yourself. You are obviusly very knowledgable in this area and I hope to see your post often sharing your knowledge with us. Welcome aboard!!
