John,
I've been playing around more with the VibSensor app, and noted that the Power spectrum is very informative. It returns a summary table of data, and also a plot.

Summary table:
Peak raw: X (0.78) Y (0.55) Z (15.45)
ISD: X (0.05) Y (0.055) Z (0.32)
Resonances:
X:
Y: 22 Hz (0.00037), 45 Hz (0.00025)
Z: 44 Hz (0.0065)

Shown here is the Power curve* from VibSensor of my Schiit Gumby DAC sitting on 1) in blue the stock Gumby feet and 2) in red on Herbie's Audio Lab Tenderfeet. You can the stock feet impart more total power into the DAC.



*-The force is imparted by a home-made "slide hammer" I made with a bolt that is only partly threaded, a lock nut that serves as a stop, and a 1/2" drive socket. I drop the socket onto the rack from a set distance from the lock nut to control variance in the force imparted. It drops 8 centimeters from the locknut on the bolt onto the head of the bolt which is resting on the audio rack shelf.
