RE: Decoupling Speakers - Springs vs. Herbie's

Posted by LtMandella on September 14, 2020 at 14:49:32:

Seems like it would be difficult to have any emperical measurement of the level of decoupling that could be achieved through various methods (short of using air bearing suspension which would obviously be 100% decoupled so no measurement required).

Maybe accelerometer measurements on the supporting structure before and after decoupling technique is applied?

I bought a rubber bath mat, you know the kind, suckers on one side and flat rubber top surface. Cut some pieces off to fit under my DeCapoI speakers.

That method must be achieving some level of decoupling but I don't have any accelerometer tape handy, so who knows?
