I don’t disagree that the technological concept is sound, it just seems counter-intuitive to deliberately introduce a source of vibration directly under a table that you then have to add a means to cancel. It’s like developing a method of cancelling vibration in your microscope just so you can mount it on the lab fridge. But as others have pointed out, audiophiles aren’t the target market. I’m sure if done properly it can be designed to perform quite satisfactorily for its audience.
