Bordeaux

Over the years I've bought so many different sound isolation pads, pucks, spiders, you name it, for subwoofers and powered studio speakers. Didn't seem to make much difference. I tried these on my subwoofer first, which sits on a wooden floor. The difference in sound was amazing. Before, even sitting on the OEM mounts, the lower frequency bass was there, more like a rumble. After using these, the bass is crisp, clear, and punchy. Instead of feeling a low rumble you feel the bass drum punch you in chest. Then I tried smaller ones on my speakers, one at a time so I could do an A/B comparison. No doubt, not my imagination, it brought out clarity and punch. Lyrics I couldn't quite make out before became so clear. I heard sounds in music I've never heard before. So with these (appropriate size for appropriate weight) on all my speakers, my whole system sounds like I spent thousands on new components. They are very pricey, but now I've finally found speaker isolators that actually work and make a very significant improvement in sound. I'm not using these on turntables or other such components, so I don't know how well they might work on those applications. But for speakers and subwoofers, I'm blown away. Now my grief is that anytime I set up new speakers, I'll have to shell out big bucks for more of these things.

Very good,I put the isoacoustics isolators under my turntable,good sounds!

I was highly skeptical about running these under my Buchardt S400 bookshelf speakers due to their cost and also the fact that I am already using Sorbothane feet under the speakers. I had a very pleasant and informative conversation with Iso Acoustics on the phone and they explained the tuning and engineering that goes into these. I put my speakers on a very accurate scale and found that the weights on their website were incorrect, and I sent them the proper data. Actually, Buchardts weights on their own website were wrong too! I think they were using shipping weight including the box, and not the bare speakers themselves. I digress, these units were shockingly good! First of all, the soundstage expanded left and right by at least 2 feet on each side. While my room limits where I can place my speakers, and impacts the sense of depth, these have me at least a foot increase in the sense of depth. I witnessed improvements across the board, from the texture and resolution of the bass to the smoothness of the high frequencies. Perhaps the biggest improvement was in the midrange when it comes to male and female vocals. Fidelity increased to the point where it now feels like you have a singer right there in your room. You can also hear the room where the music was recorded much more clearly, and even feel the echoes of the instruments reflecting off the walls. Every new track feels like you are moving to a completely different venue and recording space and it was astounding. I can't give it a full 5 starts because these things are expensive! I ended up using 8 of them and it is a tough pill to swallow even now thinking back on it. It is out of control. To Isoacoustic's defense, they do have a less expensive line called Isopucks which have a wider weight band and are not as precisely tailored in terms of performance. If these were just a bit less expensive I would give them 5 starts, but in terms of performance there is a very noticeable difference. I would say it will improve your experience by at least 30%. Before you run off and get a brand new DAC or upgrade your interconnects, I would highly recommend looking into these first. If you want to bring things into focus a bit more, make the highs a bit sweeter then a new powercord or interconnect will certainly make a difference, but the 'issue' can also be solved using this. Since you'll eventually end up with using something like this anyways, I would start with these and then fine tune using speaker placement, power cords and cables afterwards. That way, the sound with the IsoAcoustics will remain a constant and not a variable that you throw into the mix at a later date after you've already perfected your system using other methods. If I could start all over, I would have started with first purchasing strategically placed sound absorbing panels, followed by a good rug and finally extremely precise speaker placement. I would then have moved onto IsoAcoustics and spend a good amount of time with understanding the sound. Then and only then would I have started tweaking cables! If you have the money to invest in your system and this is a hobby that brings you joy and listening pleasure, there are certainly worse luxury items to spend your money on. I highly recommend these for HiFi enthusiasts, and you don't even need a discerning ear to hear the improvements.

For many years I have debated on getting isolation feet for my speakers and isolation pad for my record player. Both isoacoustic. Massive reverb for many years due to bass and sound waves passing through the room to the turntable. In combination with these isolation feet and isolation turntable combined. Has transformed my listing experience in the living room by tenfold. Worth every penny, even though it's expensive. If you don't notice a difference on how loud and crisp the audio is return immediately. But I know for a fact you never want to switch back to no isolation. Make sure you calculate the weight of your speakers to how many isolation pads you need for each speaker. If you have to save for a little longer to get what you need. Just do so, these are not just rubber isolation feet. I will always have isolation feet now with every set of speakers I own.

great product, wonderful service. Plan to purchase more, thanks!

These have removed pretty much all vibrations from our wood floor that were going into the turntable and causing some reverberations. I have a Technics SL1210GR which weighs quite a bit and was getting some bass reverberations. After getting these and setting it all up I have had zero issues. They are just very expensive.

I got this for Emotiva TA2 Integrated amp and boy am I happy!! This really open up the soundstage and clarity! It’s like upgrading a power cable as far as sound goes!! I didn’t realize how much unwanted vibrations take a load on your system! Also the TA2 is amazing but kinda noisy…this brought the noise down by like 75-80 percent!! I highly recommend these on your entire system! I even put some on my power conditioner and was completely blown away by the sound quality! Even though no audio runs through that part of the chain…there is still a power signal and if you can isolate that before it gets to your equipment then you will be absolutely amazed!! I highly recommend this amazing company and the Morrison family. They have excellent integrity and they hold the patent on this amazing invention!

I`ve tried various sizes & prices from cheap to highend of;solid oak cone,silicone,sorbothane etc etc feet, none of them can compete with any Orea`s for me under hifi components. What I`m hearing is more accurate sound reproduction (read;detail, imaging, stereo separation, sound staging) Air & Ambiance(pre-amp)is where I`m hearing the greatest increase, It could well be that because the equipment isn`t on a "dedicated hifi rack" & on a vibrating side cabinet that the results are much more noticeable. Currently own three sets of Orea`s in different sizes(under turntable, phono stage & pre-amp)will be looking to do our pwr amp soon as this "should" be the biggest overall effect as it`s the last in the chain before the speakers. Highly recommended five stars*****,thank you for taking the time to read this review. I`ve got three sets in different sizes just need to get my last set for where I believe will be the biggest improvement,the pwr amp but it`s a bit of a beast at 25kg so I`ll go with THREE Bordeaux`s.I could go with FOUR Indigo`s to reach the correct weight category,but like the look of three feet and believe three give a results than four(just my humble opinion people).

Used 4 of the Orea Bronze under my 28 lb turntable and they worked well to reduce the loud rumble that I had been getting when playing bass heavy music at higher volume levels. Happy that I can now enjoy my LPs at what I call realistic or reference levels (somewhat to my wife's dismay!!). I was pleasantly surprised at how high I could push the listening level without experiencing any of the rumble I'd been getting earlier. I had tinkered around with home made foam and silicon pads earlier, and they did not work. The Oreas did!

Absolut wirkungsvoll. Entkoppelt meine Röhrenvorstufe. Auf das richtige Gewicht/Belastung achten.

I use these under my digital amplifier / streamer. Initially I left the old feet in place so I could do A-B testing, but there was no need. The difference is quite obvious. Separation between instruments is much better and the stereo imaging highly improves. There is much clearer width and depth in the soundstage. Even the bass seems a bit fuller. I have tried other feet in the past with mixed results. Rubber pods are awful (music loses its energy) and myrtle wooden blocks are good ('crisper' detail), but nothing had as dramatic a result as the Oreas. It may seem like a lot of money, but considering the amount of improvement in sound, it's great value for money. Do make sure you get the right model, by dividing the weight of your equipment by the number of feet you plan to use.
