Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
glupsongeoffkait, your last post appears to be worth thinking about. Emphasis on word "appears".>>>>Emphasis on the word thinking. 😁 
Who Makes A Good Duplex Wall Outlet
There are many ways to skin a cat. I used to have a bunch of the silver plated Acme Audio outlets which are quite good in and of themselves I got on a trade with Bob Crump way back when. Better than hospital grade, for sure. But there are a bunch ...

But it would have been sufficient, one imagines.  
Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
michaelgreenaudioI have done this same testing hundreds of times, maybe thousands, and have never been able to conclude that the audio signal fits outside of the scope of the forces interactions. Everything literally affects everything else. The "... 
Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
Yes, glubson, those two statements appear to be contradictory. Emphasis on the word appear. One doesn’t have to look too hard to see a great many contradictions in the whole debate of whether tis better to let vibrations roam free and unfettered o...

Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
michaelgreenaudioI see what you are saying about the LPs and CDs and immediately made my own listening judgement call as soon as Michael walked into his listening area. On a professional level it would be a disqualifier for me to take his critiqui...

Ah, we have a psychologist on the forum. Sweet! 🤗 
Under speakers Vibrapod or Gaïa
Not a big fan of any rubber isolator 😛 No offense but all those air bladders, air springs, inner tubes, they come with built in problems, particularly their bad geometry, too much internal damping/friction, their tendency to leak, preventing ideal... 
Does anyone use wood for vibration control?
pekriIf I understand this correctly, the "hardware" (Audio Gear) needs to be "connected" to something that will absorb any unwanted resonant frequencies present in the gear? And the "something" that is absorbing the unwanted resonances needs to be...
