There are a few manufacturers out there, Minus-K, Halcyonics, Vibraplane...The Vibraplane is a good unit for the money, I have no problems with it and it does the job the way it should.Those Vibration units work different from construction and are very different from price.When you look at the data sheets, you see, that they have different Hz range with different weight. A reason why I added some more mass to my Micro which is sitting on a VP.There was a discussion in Forums about those units in general and real Audiophiles think, there is a war between active/passive devices and those expensive ones work better than cheap ones ("My 2 Hz work better than your 2 Hz...")Using such a device below a turntable (for example) is definitely an advantage. The VP does not only eliminate the vibrations on top, influences via Air or floor are also eliminated. I can easily check it, when my cartridge needle is in the groove, Preamp is 50% and I make tocs with a pencil onto the rack, the turntable chassis,the platter, onto the record...Without such a device I can hear very loud "tocs", specially when done close to the needle, with the working VP it is gone totally and very close at the needle it is soft.It is cheaper than a cable, I guess, that is one reason why the typical audio Moron does nor jump for it (and the next is, he does not understand it anyway)
