ISOPAD-HD Acoustic Interface Pads (Basic, Medium, Max)

Isopad HD

Isopad-HDs are high-tech Acoustic Interface Pads (AIPs) designed to dampen and absorb distortion vibration energy. They are designed for heavy duty use on or between object surfaces for example between speaker cabinets and floors. They are effective in reducing and isolating distortion vibration while providing low strength coupling between surfaces.

General Description:

ISOPAD-HDs AIPs are composed of Polidimethyl Siloxane or (Silicone). Polidimethyl Siloxane is a highly durable rubber-like material that provides excellent isolation and damping between hard floors and heavy objects. While eliminating distortion, its non-skid surface improves speaker stability and protects surfaces. Polidimethyl Siloxane's closed cell molecular structure makes it very durable and strong against normal wear and tear.

Usage Application Summary:

  1. Designed specifically for heavy speaker and heavy speaker supports or stands.
  2. Designed for long term use;Wear resistant and durable.
  3. Used between speaker stand top plate and speaker.
  4. Used between speaker stand base support and wood, soft tile, linoleum or other hard surface flooring materials.
  5. Improves stability and safety by eliminating sliding, and tipping, of speakers generally 30 lbs. or more.
  6. Covers small objects creating a flat surface for added security and stability**.
  7. Replaces destructive spikes which causes damage to wood, soft tile, linoleum and other flooring surfaces.
  8. Ideal for use under heavy amplifiers, heavy studio monitors, and large heavy enclosures or components.
