As I was fortunate earlier on ( circa 1990 - 2003 ) to be in a nice townhouse where placement of the gear placed onto a rack which stood 16" high, was located on the right wall about 6' in front of the speakers.
Since then I've always felt comfortable with custom made Sound Anchors Amp Stands ( Racks ) where each is 13" high, and centrally located between the speakers without any sort of mishap as far as sound staging goes, and feel that currently I'm getting the best sonics I've ever had, so much so I'm not inclined to change one component, and am now looking to add one of their Amp stands made which the top shelf is maxed at 7" from the floor in which my DAC shall reside.
It seems to me that during my time spent with either Linn or Roksan Turntables, which where to be perched atop stands between 8 - 14" from the floor on stands from the likes of Sound Organization or Mana Acouctics or Roksan nicely made tripod stands where amongst the first which could be safely placed between once speakers without any said ill effects......, I've come to believe it's the tower type designs in racks or wall units which have it worst in regards to limiting the flow of notes as their wavelength is diffused by said side panel interactions.
As noted during my stay in Japan, the natives always seem to use rather lower racks | platforms, where some even had these items located in cutout into their flooring placed atop dirt or slabs of granite......., and in each case they proved very effective.
Placement of all components is vital, as a means of canceling out sound waves patterns as well as resonance control as far as I'm concerned......., which lead to the original topic on these isolation footers, as being one of the only brands short of Shun Mook | Symposium Acoustics which I was able to hear their sonic impact within a few bars, and how have 3 different sets of them which shall be placed into the system accordingly.
