Re: My floor hums... how serious is this? Any suggestions?

The cooling system is the problem, not the audio system. More then likey, it's the compressor(s) on the unit that giving you the trouble,they have a good deal of mass and vibrate like hell. Just install/upgrade the shock mounts on them, (rubber/spring type). If you are getting vibration from the fans, feather the vanes/blades to reduce this. The fans can be remounted useing a shock system. If the cooling system is an out board unit, shock mount the entire thing.Another consideration is the can foam insulation, I used that to deaden my ceiling fan with good results.
