When dealing with basic laws of nature (like mechanical vibrations and their behavior) and staying within those priciples, the benefits are massive, they are many, and they are across the frequency spectrum without any negatives whatsoever.Hence, based on your findings, IMO, each of the models you've evaluated had to have one or more shortcomings in their design. Or perhaps it was your execution that caused the shortcomings? Or perhaps a combination thereof?
I almost forgot. If you're not allowing each of the products to settle in for a minimum of 7 - 10 days before swapping out or completing your evaluation, your evaluation is essentially worthless.
Just as you should not evaluate new components without first allowing them to fully burn-in. Mechanically, there is a settling in period that is almost exactly like an electrical burn-in. The only difference here is that once burned-in a component will stay burned-in (for the most part). But with mechanical settling in, any movement whatsover, the objects must go through the entire settling-in phase as if starting from scratch.
And if after 7 - 10 days untouched, you hear little change, the product and/or the execution is a dud.
