RE: Sporadic thoughts.

Steve, I’m still willing to let you have the last word, But that implies that you provide an earnest last word.

Considering that:

1. Your initial response to me seemed intentionally insulting and condescending.

2. Your quoted response in your buddy the Duster’s post and your subsequent posts contained what I suspect are highly questionable statements and claims. (BTW, it seemed the Duster was awfully quick to provide a small quoted dissertation by you addressing this very topic/thread. Per chance, are you and the Duster roommates?)

3. You claimed that I was theorizing to explain why your product won’t work. When it seems obvious to me that one of us is theorizing (perhaps guessing) a whole lot more than the other.

4. You claimed that I accused you of making thoughtless comments. Again, I’m pretty sure I didn’t use the word thoughtless and if I did I apologize. To clarify I think the appropriate word then and now would be misinformed, uninformed, or lack understanding. Which in this industry I think is quite a common occurrence.

5. You claim not to be attempting to totally isolate when in fact you use the term “decouple” (aka disconnect, block, disengage, disable, severe, break, isolate, etc) throughout and even include the term in your product line. You even said, "I don't insist on blocking or trapping vibrational energies so they can't escape, nor is that a goal. One goal is to block the transfer of vibration from one surface to another (between floor and speaker cabinet or between component and shelf).” Not only does it seem that you speak with forked tongue here and elsewhere, but in this 2nd sentence you freely admit your goal is to isolate vibrations by blocking the transfer of vibration from one surface (object) to another. If that’s not vibration isolation, what is?

Frankly, Steve, IMO, you’re all over the frickin’ map with your seemingly repeated illogical and contradictory statements (which is typical of a “vibration isolationist”) and I could probably list concerns almost line by line throughout your 3 or 4 above posts but I’ll spare us both that anguish.

In spite of your apparent rudeness and/or arrogance and your seemingly routine and contradictory statements, I’m still willing to let you have the last word provided you supply an earnest response to the questions about the car in the bottom of my previous post to you and you answer one more question, which is:

In that same car at the stoplight analogy, how is the car resting on air-filled all-season radial tires (think dbNeutralizer material) being continuously bombarded with vibrations from the other car’s woofer (or even its own subwoofer) any different from a speaker or component? e.g. couldn’t the rearview mirror vibrating violently be akin to a a transistor, op-amp, capacitor, tube, etc?
