David you are right, I do not have a turntable and my speakers roll off at about 40hz. I will say that even if I had a turntable and bigger speakers that could produce a 20Hz in my room (which is a feat in itself), I wouldn’t worry as much about these frequencies because little recorded material has them.
My main point is that what breaks materials is:
1) DECELLERATION
2) CHANGE OF DIRECTION
3) ACCELERATION
The three components above make up one vibartion.
So more emphasis should be placed on slowing down the rise time (quickness) of acceleration and deceleration of a component (change of direction is unavoidable), rather than reducing the magnitude of the vibration or filtering out a particular frequency. And it seems to me that damping materials do just that and hard coupling devices do not.
