Some light reading per the link below. This paper explains why products that use crystal oscillators are sensitive to vibration, and in a way that is conceivably bad for audio. I believe that Devialet use crystal oscillators, but I have no idea what type. Does anyone know? Anyway, this does provide some insight as to why Devialet amps might benefit from isolation. A while ago I read an article about isolating GPS control systems from vibration in guided missiles, this explained very similar issues per the link attached.
