Thanks for reinforcing my findings but if one is to use them I would avoid a front loader such as the Playback Designs for fear the mat will get stuck and/or not load correctly
Yes, I've always principally used a top loader.

After reading this thread I have come to the conclusion that most audiophiles are stone cold crazy. Myles, I found your PC swap interesting. I actually bought a magic PC and switched out the stock power cord from my Jadis Defy 7 MKII. All I got was a bunch of hum. I quickly snatched that damn thing out of my system and reinstalled the stock PC from Jadis. When I looked at the box the magic PC came in I saw that they had lifted the ground which surprised me. I put the magic PC on Audiogon and quickly sold it. I am not into magic PCs any more.

Quiet air conditioning as part of an overall acoustic effort is at the top of my list. Silence and physical comfort just go like milk and honey.
(...) I'm very certain that for people with systems capable of high SPLs, vibration control in the future will no longer be considered tweaks either. I can't live without my filter rack systems. Well, actually I can if I'm not playing very loud, but they sure help when the pedal is to the metal.
