By means of damping and decoupling achieve a more comfortable Klang without humming bass or similar. But why is it even necessary to have an effective sound conduction?
A pair of Loudspeakers is an electronic entity. With the help of Chassis a mechanical wave is generated from electricity, which our ears then interpret as music, speech or noise. Because the membranes are in the Sound wall of the loudspeaker move, their vibrations are also transmitted to the housing.
Incredible Loudspeakers should therefore stand directly on the ground. The type of coupling that improves the sound depends on the floor of the listening room and the manufacturing quality of the Loudspeakers. In the following I present possible methods.
1. An acoustic coupling
With this option, a so-called spike under the Loudspeakers placed with its tip pointing towards the ground. In this way, the vibrations of the housing are dissipated into the ground. With a small test, you can find out for yourself whether the acoustic coupling is suitable for your listening room: Step firmly on the floor and listen carefully to the noise that is produced. If the noise quickly subsides, you can confidently use this variant of vibration dissipation.
2. An acoustic decoupling
The exact opposite of acoustic coupling. Here shows the top of the spikes upwards and thus prevents the sound energy of the housing from additionally causing the substructure to vibrate. However, the energy is not diverted in this way, but only accumulated. This method is special HiFi-Furniture sense.
3. A rubber damper
If the Loudspeakers are not of absolute top quality or there is a clearly perceptible floor resonance, rubber dampers are best. Here, both the energy radiated by the body of the loudspeaker and the resonances transmitted via the floor by other vibration exciters are destroyed by the damper. This process allows for more controlled bass reproduction and a focused voice.
