Auralex SubDude

Anyone using the Auralex Acoustics SubDude underneath their powered subwoofer?

According to the web site:
"Its purpose is to prevent sound from transmitting through your subwoofer to surrounding surfaces."

Does the SubDude really work as advertised?

What sonic benefits have you experienced?

I've used the Auralex SubDude and Great Gramma with good results under my Velodyne subwoofers.

Here is an older thread where other A'gon members have shared their thoughts on the Auralex SubDude. Seems to be the real deal.

Does it make a difference if the sub is downward or forward firing to get the best results?

I use a SubDude under a Velodyne HGS-15 with the same results Eric reports. I endorse his high recommendation.

The Velodyne subs I used the Auralex SubDude or Great Gramma on were forward firing so I can't help you there with the down firing part of your question. I do know though for the subs I do have I did get good results by putting them on the Auralex iso platforms.

I use it for the downfiring ACI Titan II LE with similar results as everyone else. The only complaint I have is the build quality is a little cheesy but it works.
