Isolation for tube amps

I've read the some of the threads on isolation platform ideas for amps, but am wondering how one can isolate the amps (and other equipment) from ambient sound pressure? It seems that this would be the most predominant force to isolate? I don't know how anyone would be able to isolate one's components from this force unless the components were in the other room. Any ideas?

Thank you all for your responses. Airborne vibration just does not seem to be discussed much and I would think this type of energy would be the largest contributor to vibration in all components. I suppose it is not addressed because one can not do much about it. I am going to continue to research this. Thanks again for your input

Wow gentlemen! thank you for your amazing insight. That's a lot of information to chew on. I really appreciate you all taking the time to put together such thoughtful and thought provoking responses! This is one area where I think the industry is coming up short on. I plan to continue expolring this vibration/distortion relationship. Thanks again for all of your input - very good!
