Huh?

I've shared the company name and details with those on this forum I know won't go off and act like asses with that info.

It is entertaining you are so emotionally wrapped up in this. :)

Hmmmm.....OK - so I just had the owner of a speaker company who on their web site says their speakers are "cool" try and lecture me that audio racks and fighting vibrations in high-end audio are not important.

You are the one that tried to make the speaker manufacturer appear stupid and then you accuse other people of being emotionally wrapped up in your nonsense that you started.

The real truth is there are people on this thread that had their doubts about the veracity of your claims and your responses didn't alleviate those doubts.
 
FWIW Dept.: Bob Worzella, the founder of Sound Anchors, using a lazer and mirrors placed on speaker cabinets, was able to show that the speakers vibrated less when mounted on his speaker stands.

I've no doubt some stands are better than others. So in addition to what speaker brand, what speaker stand brand too? Otherwise a red herring and nothing to see here.

well said, he's been here one year and seems to portray the 'holier than thou' attitude ?

It wasn't speaker stands. He was talking about audio racks, audio footers and platforms. I believe I said audio rack in my original post, and should have included the part about the footers/platforms as well.

We've done measurements of audio racks and platforms. They can have a very measurable effect on a system (reducing vibration by 10dB easily) if properly built and properly used. The measurement is correlated by listening as well.

Regarding footers: my LP mastering lathe was mounted on a custom table that employed an anti-vibration platform, isomerically mounted on the table. The table had welded legs of 4" diameter steel, with adjustable points on the bottom. The lathe was built about 1949, after the invention of the LP but long before stereo, although I had a Westerex 3D cutter head mounted to it. Its pretty obvious that none of the ideas for equipment stands or footers are new or started by audiophiles, at least judging by that table.

IMO/IME we can put this thing to bed...
 
I would like to take this opportunity to remind members you can create an "ignore" list. :fingers: I have three Sharks on my list and it works very well.
