I can understand how these devices can improve the sound of speakers and turntables .. maybe even tube electronics. But how in the world do they improve the sound of solid-state components? Are transistors sensitive to vibrations? Assuming that there are no cold solder joints on the PCB, I fail to see how these devices can affect sound quality in any meaningful way.
