Default Case Feet

This isn't so much silence as it is vibrations.
But I need some case feet that will KILL even the slightest vibrations. I'm not looking for this to lower the noise from my case, I need them specifically for the anti-vibration needs.

I'm looking at these: http://www.acoustiproducts.com/en/acoustifeet.asp
Can anyone vouch for them?

Any other suggestions are welcomed.

Don't ask questions.
Sensitive equipment can.

True that ^^^ My 120mm fan in my PSU spins fast from time to time and its like a earth quake.. (I’ve moved mine onto a small piece of wood and some carpet under the wood...(Less static))...I don’t know if that will help you though...but It seems not to like...moreless move around as much...

And I do have feet (that came on my case) Almost exactly like those (that you have a link for)...Mine are like built into the case though lol...I think they would help...

I got these and they work pretty well but I don't know how much vibration you are getting so I can't say if it will work for you. My hard drive spinning up shook my case and that was really annoying and these got rid of the problem. The ones you linked may work just as well although it may not look as good.

These are the same thing as the above but without the nice aluminum and a lot beefier compared to what you had linked.

In the spirit of macguyver modding, you could always just put a towel underneath it.
