Incredible... A fantastic idea, but very very extensively unbelievably crazy... Now I imagine doing the same with my 60 pounds power amp... And why not the speakers also... Finally each of us should get a boat  But... Why not simplify this with big enough rubber bands to suspend the whole thing ? Talking about condoms recently, why not... Alain |

Yes, sure thought about the amps and speakers. Amps (and btw PC) are normally doable, speakers could be a problem. Oh, when we were designing this house, there were to be chains right through the sealing, those chains connecting to the sealing above that, the speakers just hanging on it. That never happened ... |

George, You were so right in your first post with box and foam. You are also so right in your last post about the oil which it really is intended to be (all about the viscosity and no electrical danger in the first place). Notice though that the foam really has to be some stiff low mass material and that it isn't to tough the surrounding box anywhere.
Todd, You were actually the one who functionally was the most close in an early stage.
Mani, You were right about the colour, but people can really take a grey etc. bag for the "isolation".
Leo, I personally think you should be granted a bigger prize than Coen will receive for this one : 1. connected the 9v battery and use it to lift earth potential of the usb a couple of volts. But as you know, no matter how many times we send you something it will NEVER arrive. However, the dinner invitement is still open.
Thank you all, Peter PS: By positioning the interlinks carefully, you will be able to have the NOS1 floated in the middle without touching an edge of the box anywhere. When you indeed try this with the box provided with shipping, take care that some extra strong material surrounds the box (could be a rope). Indeed it is so when you move your NOS1 it feels really "suspensive" and you can feel how it it now sounds. This is a relation between its mass and the upwards force and oil will make it more suspensive but also more "attaching" to the floor. This is the math needed (what frequency to block). To cover for the hammering sound upon the NOS1 (so not through the floor) it was my idea to put something like a box over it. That simple, but should work (for about the whole frequency range I'd say, but just a feeling). |

Well, I was kind of on the right track with isolating the equipment from the floor resonance with an inner tube. Just not quite crazy enough to think of floating that inner tube in a pool of water!!! In all my years going to CES in Las Vegas, I have never seen such a thing! Crazy & Genuis are sometimes not to far apart  |

Would you describe the sounds as "liquid" or "wet" Peter?

You can't guess how much we are laughing here. But "boxed" seems not right anyway.
