Vibrapod Isolators PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 04 November 2007 22:07

Vbrapod are acoustic isolators which reduce unwanted vibrations:

  • vibrations caused by CD/DVD players
  • vibrations between speakers and their support (e.g. wooden floor)
  • under PC's (typical fan & harddisk vibrations)

Horizontal And Vertical Vibration Isolation Improves:

  • bass definition and depth
  • dynamics
  • imaging
  • video images
  • detail resolution
  • ambiance
  • clarity
  • sound stage

On disc players (CD/DVD/SACD/...) the result is immediate : bass becomes tighter, instruments have more air and the sound opens up.

Reviews

"...Cones without a doubt take the Vibrapods to the next perfomance level."
John Potis, sixmoons.com, June, 2004

"In my experience, that makes them the best buy in audio--nothing else begins to come close."
Dan Davis, UltraAudio, April, 2004

"What was really telling in my going back and forth from cones to Pods was that, when the Pods were on duty, I would forget what I was doing and just sit there listening. Doesn't that say it all?"
Bruce Kennett, Listener Magazine, Autumn 1998

"Forget all that stupid voodoo-science others may have told you and test drive a set of Vibrapod Isolators: your ears will definitely thank you.
Ludio Cadeddu, TNT-Audio - Internet HiFi magazine, January, 1999

"Synergizers, this is simply the single most significant tweak I've run across - hands down.
Greg Weaver, SoundStage!, January, 1999

"Short of a complete megabuck overhaul, I have never heard (or heard of), anything that got that kind of overwhelming, dramatic improvement!"
Anna Logg, the abso!ute sound, Issue 118, June/July 1999

"It's hard to beat the cost/performance benefit provided by the Vibrapod isolation feet, seen nearly everywhere this year."
Shannon Dickson, Stereophile Magazine, May, 1999 (Vol. 22 No. 5)

"Om een lang verhaal kort te maken : onder een loopwerk zijn de pods een echte aanrader, onder andere apparatuur probeer je ze best zelf eens uit"
Frederic Vanden Poel, hifi.nl, July, 2003
