Man oh man

Hi SoftwireEngineer,

"I think the VibraPod technique is similar to the bicycle tube but more elegant."

"Elegant" perhaps but a well implemented bicycle tube will be more effective.

Two things to keep in mind with inner tubes:
1. Inflate only enough to achieve air support. One pump too much and the resonance is too high and the benefits go away.
2. The larger the circle described by the diameter of the inner tube, the easier it is to balance gear atop it.

The only thing I'd add is that the combination of an air bearing with roller bearings will result in your player being "freed" to perform its best. It will sound like all your CDs have been remastered (at a higher level of Quality).

Happy Listening!
