hi Albert,
just a point of clarification. a Vibraplane is passive, but could have active leveling. active would mean it has sensors and actuators and can stop and start. a vibraplane is like a spring, and floats and settles. it's a very good passive device. my Rockport had an active leveling air suspension quite similar to the vibraplane.
i'm not passing judgement on whether active or passive is better, or any particular result. i'm simply clarifying what separates active vibration control and passive. the ability to stop and start. active is 500 times stiffer than passive. active is more effective in low frequencies, but needs a passive component to be effective at higher frequencies.
Albert, when you say the Townshend was not good under preamps, DAC, and phono stage, are you referring to the old Townshend air-bladder (inner tube) platforms---the Seismic Sink, or the current spring-based Seismic Pod, Platform, Podium, etc.?
Albert and Folk Freak, do either of you know if the MinusK platforms and tables are passive designs, and therefore perhaps very different in performance characteristics from the Herzan and Vibraplane?
Thanks fellers---Eric.
