| Does anyone know if mid to heavy vibrations from sub woofers will damage mixers. i have a mackie d2 which has a tough outer shell. But my sub woofers packs so much punch that it makes my mixer vibrate when i touch it. |

Wouldn't have thought it would be a problem. A decent mixer would be designed to withstand such conditions.

Long term damage shouldn't be an issue but short term negative effects such as needle skipping when playing vinyl make be a problem especially if using a warped platter or record.
If you really have excessive amounts of bass you should get some speaker spikes:
Best solution to avoid having the bass transferred from the subwoofer to the floor is to use
These eliminate nearly all sound transfer to the ground. |

no damage at all!
It's spikes installed underneath your subwoofer that point downwards which you then set unto circular plates ;)
Play closer attention to the pictures. |
