| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? shadorneGeoff,The burden is on you to make a simple demonstration to show that vibration is a big issue. Cars and other mobile devices do not suffer electrical distortion due to vibration of electronics. You are talking about a fringe issue that i... | |

| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Geoffkait:"issue. It’s something deeper. Because vibration degrades CD laser reading and distorts the signal in everything it’s a BIG DEAL. Microphonics is a strawman argument."Seismic type vibration forces the ENTIRE BUILDING to vibrate. Because ... | |

| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? shadorneWhat a totally useless thread full of ad hominem attacks. If the OP actually cares anymore I will add that I concur with Mapman. Apart from turntables, tubes, and speakers, for the most part any mechanical vibration isolation is totally un... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? ethan_winerIt’s clear that Geoff Kait doesn’t understand what nulling is or how it works. I’ll give you a clue: it doesn’t "measure" anything. Here’s a more complete explanation, not that you’re interested in learning anything but maybe others are... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? 12-21-2016 1:39pmNathan Winer: Ralph, I absolutely do not think I know everything. I do think that everything that affects audio fidelity is known, and so there’s no mystery, but I know very well that I don’t know everything. A list of just what I... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? ethan_winer^^^ Yes, exactly. And nulling can be used in many other interesting and creative ways. The device I’m currently developing can measure distortion down to extremely low levels, and it can even use music as a test signal. It can also comp... | |

| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Once you let them get a foothold in your house you will have a hard time getting rid of them. | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Well, sorry to be the messenger with the bad news but no one is going to have much luck playing Untreated CDs on untreated CD players, or CD players that aren’t isolated. Without the entire system being tweaked, including the room. That’s pretty m... |
