Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?
  mapman13,895 posts11-04-2016 12:05pmThey only move a little bit, enough to damp teh most common vibrations of lesser magnitude, the ones you would never feel or know about otherwise. The grooves the inner part rotate in are wideth enough to pro...

mapman13,893 posts11-04-2016 11:49amYou got it. The spring loaded inner portion of my footers are the part that rotates. It provides the ability to level and provides stability compared to a spring alone. I suspect this would help against those na...

dlcockrum431 posts11-04-2016 11:33amHi Geoff,It seems that many manufacturers of spring-type footers have a range of loads for each offering. I understand that matching the spring to the exact load is optimal, but is there not a range for each spr...

theaudiotweak1,396 posts11-04-2016 11:07amGeoff you are offensive. You called me a monkey and dense. As I stated a spring is never in a static state even when loaded. Your example of saying a spring is self leveling proves they can never reach the...

dlcockrum429 posts11-04-2016 8:18amHi Geoff,"Understood, but wouldn’t a few different models with differing spring rates be sufficient to handle the majority of gear?"Was it yesterday I said spring rate had to be matched to the load? I have differ...

theaudiotweak1,395 posts11-04-2016 9:58amStasis: a period or state of inactivity or equilibrium. Something a spring can never achieve. Tom. Star Soundtom, no offense intended and I hate to judge before all the facts are in but apparently you have...

dlcockrum428 posts11-03-2016 9:54pm"spring loaded rotating adjustable feet"Sounds like a great product development idea...It should probably be mentioned the only thing that's adjustable is the height since springs are linear devices. So you can't...

The dumbest stereo experience ever!
Uh, oh, I’m getting a real bad feeling again.

Mapman asked what I use in my setup.Stage 1 - The Bio Mikro G utilizes bamboo, viscoelastic material and pure glass microspheres to mimic a woodpecker head’s bone, elastic layer and spongy layer, respectively, surrounding the bird’s brain. Without...
