Can I use an isolation stand with an isolation pad?

I bought a 5.1 surround sound system recently, and got an IsoAccoustics isolation stand for my subwoofer. Unfortunately my neighbor below me can hear the bass if I'm watching a loud movie (in a condo, hardwood floors). I'm wondering if I should buy an isolation pad - like the Auralex Subdude HT - for under the stand, or if there might be a better approach? The music store I went to steered me away from isolation pads and towards the stand, but it's clearly not doing enough on its own. Thanks to anyone with advice!

I bet you do. I'm sure you can send him to just the right web site too. With very very special springs.

He also said:  "I could be wrong."

Geoff, we all know you don't believe that.

Are you channeling glubson? If so you’re doing an excellent job. Newbies have a propensity to sass their elders and want to take charge and move out. But move where? 😁 McMaster Carr - supplier to the stars ⭐️

I have no idea what you'er talking about. But I'm sure you do and that's all that counts.

"Newbies have a propensity to sass their elders..."

Are you an old man Geoff? It certainly doesn't come across that way...(read sarcasm)....

" McMaster Carr - supplier to the stars"

Same stuff, right? Well, without the magic and the voodoo.....and insane prices. And as I'm sure you can attest, its the high price which really produces the desired effect...............

geoffkait,

"Are you channeling glubson?"
I am not that influential, but I will take a compliment.

"I might have underestimated you. 🙄"
You seem to underestimate just about everyone. Except yourself. That is where you overestimate.
