You mean no -detectable- difference. I'm pretty sure I could contrive a
scenario that would demonstrate that but it would probably involve some
high frequency transducer directly against the crystal and a scope or
spectrum analyzer to look at the s/pdif.

Many components are microphonic, including vacuum tubes and higher
density ceramic caps. The fact that you didn't detect any problems might
be a testament to someone's deliberate design efforts rather than
evidence against the existence of microphonics in general.  ;)
