Paul, you are right - I was not considering partition walls (being in the fortunate position of not having any!) - I wouldn't bolt anything more than a picture frame to one....
My thinking was - knock out the external vibrations from rack/floor (bolt to wall), then damp the component - by which I mean the case work & the PCBs - damping the casework will reduce airborne vibrations effecting whatever it is that is effected by vibrations(!?),and damping PCBs/individual components will reduce internally generated vibrations.
Can't hear any difference, but most of my CDP's caps have a blob of blutac on them, the PCB is suspended on C-1002 & casework covered in the stuff. Nothing 'rings'. Smells a bit though...

WM, just had a look at your site (looks good!) - am intrigued by your 'recharging' of cables - how does that work then
or do I have to listen to some..?

[QUOTE="robs, post: 497321, member: 1145"] Paul, you are right - I was not considering partition walls (being in the fortunate position of not having any!) - I wouldn't bolt anything more than a picture frame to one.... My thinking was - knock out the external vibrations from rack/floor (bolt to wall), then damp the component - by which I mean the case work & the PCBs - damping the casework will reduce airborne vibrations effecting whatever it is that is effected by vibrations(!?),and damping PCBs/individual components will reduce internally generated vibrations. Can't hear any difference, but most of my CDP's caps have a blob of blutac on them, the PCB is suspended on C-1002 & casework covered in the stuff. Nothing 'rings'. Smells a bit though... WM, just had a look at your site (looks good!) - am intrigued by your 'recharging' of cables - how does that work then :confused: or do I have to listen to some..?;) :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
