IsoAcoustics Isolated Stands
« on: August 24, 2012, 12:01:52 PM »
Looking to pick up a pair of stands for my Yamaha HS80M and ran across
these as I was looking at the typical wood/steel stands.  I've not seen these
before now, read very little about them, but sure seems like a solid design
at this point.

I've looked at some wood stands plus isolation pads and I'd easily be at the
$100 price point so these seems like the best of both worlds and then some.

This seems to be the most available model ISO-L8R155 but according to this
chart (http://www.isoacoustics.com/files/chart.pdf) I'd need a set of the
ISO-L8R200 wihch are supposedly due out in September of 2012.

I've read some folks are using a pair of the 155's for each larger moitor, but
have to wonder how much the 200's will cost.  Suppose I could do doubles
on the 155's and sell them when the 200's come out, assuming the 200's are
not insanely priced.

Looks cool, but a bit over kill, these can be had for $30 at guitar center and less if you do some poking around: http://www.auralex.com/sound_isolation_mopad/sound_isolation_mopad.asp

They do the same thing, and leave ya some cash for tickets too.

I've seen those pads, but I also need stands, which are at least $65 for
what I need plus cash for pads.  So, these seem reasonable.

Well if you need stands then maybe thats a good option.  I bought a set of the On Stage Stands from Guitar Center on sale for $60, and they have a set of rubber pads glued to the tops plates so I didnt need anything else, and I am qite happy with them.   I didnt see those were stands too, all the adds looked like a desk top solution.   Good luck!

I suppose they really are a desktop solution (which is what I need)
and the 12" height increase is near perfect for my DAW.  Adding tilt
and isolation to the equation seems like an all-in-one.  I'll likely pick
up a set.  I shot sweetwater an email asking about the 200's.

Here is another workable option for desktop speaker stands by Wood Technologies.  You'd still need isolation something like Primeacoustic's recoil stabilizers etc. unless you already have isolation.

I was looking at those (taller and black).  The cheapest I could find was $65.
I also need isolation.
