IsoAcoustics Orea Series Audio Equipment Isolators (Bronze - 8 lbs Max/pc)

Replaced the stock feet on my Pro-Ject X1. The TT feels so stable. The suction on both sides keeps the turntable affixed to the surface it sits on. It might be psychological but the sound seems punchier and more detailed. They look great too. Thrilled with my purchase and would recommend as a great upgrade to your table.

There was a big difference in sound quality and ability to crank the volume. That said, I'm a little miffed at the size and weight compared to the cost. They're making crazy profit, but they do work.

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!

These worked great under a headphone amp. Looking at the weight graph on the IsoAcoustics website, it looked like I actually needed the next size up (Indigo). So I ordered a set of those and figured I would move these underneath my DAC, which weighed less than the amp. Well, putting the Indigos underneath the amp and moving these under the DAC actually made things sound worse. I lost the full cohesive sound I had before, and instead things got a bit thin and edgy. Weird! Then I tried just having just the Indigos under the amp, but still didn't sound as good as these underneath the amp.TL;DR -- if these Orea footers don't work out, it might be worth trying some of the other ones in the lineup.

I have tinkered around with footers for my audio gear for years. Some were too soft, too compliant and thus the music would be robbed of its natural energy. Super hard carbon fiber cones preserved the energy of the sound but introduced a hardness to the upper midrange and treble.Enter Isoacoustics' Orea footers. The three bronze footers I bought here are spaced under my line stage. As of this writing my entire system save the turntable is sitting atop Oreas. They just clean the sound. A fog is lifted. Individual instruments inhabit a specific space in the soundscape. The sound is open and encompassing. I am hearing small, fun details in songs I know well but never truly heard before. It sure took me a good many years to find the solution to vibration and chassis resonance. Thank goodness for Isoacoustics designing such an effective line of products that are not crazy expensive and truly get the job done! If you are a serious music listener your system needs the Orea treatment!

I bought these to place under my stereo components. I’ve read and seen videos saying that vibrations can cause problems for the sound. I can’t say that I could hear a difference. However, I have expensive components and these may help get the most out of them. So, make your own decision. I do have to say that these are very nice, though.

This solved a problem where walking on the floor caused CD player to skip. I used 4 of these on the corner, placed a weight on top of the player, and no more skipping. The weight on top is important to stop skipping. Only marginally works without the weight. A pricey solution, but it works flawlessly.

I have a mid tier audio setup (B&W 702s, with a pro-ject X1 turntable) and bought these to fully isolate the turntable from the floor and cabinet below it so that when people walk by the record doesn’t skip. Also was aiming for even cleaner sound. These helped a bit, but if someone walked by with harder steps the record would still skip.For $150 for 3 pads, it wasn’t worth it to me to just partially solve the problem. I returned the 3 pads I bought.Suggestion: give these a shot. They’re well made, but are not perfect.
