Just wondering if anyone has direct experience to relate of how vibration control devices affected the sound of their purely headphone system. While the whole idea of vibration control can itself be controversial, it seems that it would be more helpful in a speaker based system due to the vibrations transmitted through the air and through the floor from the speakers to the components. But with headphones there is no vibration of the components caused by the music, so any benefit would have to come mostly from reducing or absorbing vibrations generated inside the components themselves (ie the motor in a CD player), although I guess passing trucks, airplanes and the like could also shake your system.
So anyone have any perspectives on the importance or benefits of vibration control on their headphone listening? Due you use hard components like cones or soft ones like Vibrapods? I am mostly interested in reports of what you actually heard, and I am not so interested in a theoretical debate as to whether it should or should not help.
