Vibration isolation or absorption?


You see those pointy things at the bottom of a speaker that are very very sharp.  Arguably a weapon in the wrong hands.  And then you see those same pointy things inserted into a disk.

So the pointy things, aka ‘spikes’ , can Channel vibration elsewhere and away from the components and speakers, or they can isolate it.

Seems channeling vibration away from a component/ speaker, which I guess is absorption, is preferable.

Is this true? And why do they keep saying isolation.

Well, add the price of wrapping the edges with black tape to make them disappear:, let's say an even $13.00

Hello jumia, 

The system we use as a testing facility and musical reference system are located in Wisconsin. The Energy Room is open to anyone for an audition by appointment only.

Our second system is located in Delaware. We are setting it up in an average environment for referencing a new product called Mechanical Panels™. These environmental sound devices were reverse-engineered from the Energy Room design to fit into any environment. They are much smaller in size versus acoustic panels and diffraction devices and command a larger surface area. Very wife friendly.

The electronics will be a modified Ayon Pre-Dac, Metronome Technologie, Star Sound amplification, various Sonoran and High Fidelity cables, Accentus Grand MK II speakers, and Rhythm Platforms.

We will also use a Bose Wave CD player atop a Rhythm Platform as an accompaniment for cost analysis and a secondary vintage system using an Onkyo Integra integrated amplifier and a Yamaha CD player with an Onkyo FM copper chassis tuner.

I looked at all the photos and I'm disappointed. So many members have done such a great job photographing and detailing out their systems and when I look at your pictures and info it's a huge letdown.

It looks to be a very impressive system but definitely warrants a more comfortable and informative overview
