I've never seen a convincing argument that vibration isolation effects electricity. Sure, turntables and speakers, but not sure electronics goes beyond the "seems like" rationalization.
Component isolation
Let’s say you’re going to add isolation feet to a component with no moving parts, such as a preamp, phono stage, DAC, amp, tuner, etc.
Which one is most critical to the extent would get your attention first?

Hi all, This issue of vibration resolution and the science behind it can get overwhelming and out of proportion with the cost of mitigating it in my opinion. I certainly may be naive in this regard but I have used a cork mat on my turntable, the little cork or cork-like inserts in Shunyata steel feet boxes for small devices, and even wine bottle corks that I have cut in half length-wise to use under components. More recently I have also used Vibrapods. At only $24 for a pack of 4 Vibrapods, I think it has hard to go very wrong. At best, I have solved any vibration issues I may have and can perceive. At worst, it’s a good start and not expensive. Leaving to ask what would be the incremental benefit of my expensive vibration resolution solutions. |
Any expansive vibration solution is certainly not worth it,because the money invest would be more useful at any other link of an audio system... I eliminate audible vibration at low cost in my system... The greatest underestimated problem and more difficult to solve atlow cost is cleaning the electrical line and the audio line system... |
