The fact that suspending speakers by means of say fishing line has little
effect on their sound would seem to make the point that mechanically
coupling the speaker to its support makes very little sonic difference.

But it does, it has a noticeable effect on the sound at low frequencies,
and you can see the effect on a waterfall plot.

What's worse is that many folks don't use fishing line, but something like
heavy chain which often makes interesting parasitic sounds when shaken.

F=MA seems to apply to speakers. The M is usually very large compared to F,
so the A is quite small.

The M isn't anywhere near large enough. That's why we fill speaker stands
with lead shot. If you can physically see the speakers moving around when
the volume is turned up, there's a problem.
