Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components


I installed a set of Isoacoustics Gaia 2s on my speakers about a month ago and was extremely pleased with them. I'm now curious about the Oreas.

My components are currently placed on a good rack with Finite Elemente Cerabase footers at the bottom of the rack. I was wondering if individual isolators such as the Orea or Seismic Pod placed under components can further improve sound quality. I've read contradictory comments about the Orea. Some say they brought an appreciable difference when placed under components such as DAC or amplifiers. Some say they bring nothing to the sound, zero difference.

I would appreciate experiences on the Isoacoustics Orea or the Townshend Seismic Pod, or the comparison between the two products. The Oreas look better than the Pods to me although the latter may be costlier.

Can you kindly explain me what is "pitch" used for in music terms in English? 

The 28.5Hz is about the sound, but more about how the some of the notes feel. Is hard to explain, but for example  notes like D#0 --- E#0 --- F#0--- G#0--- A#0--- B#0---C#1--Pedal C-- D#1 and even E#1s sound and feel exaggerated; sometimes their decay and, I believe, resonance(?) (if I use Google to translate it says blooming to the feeling I want to express) feel like hitting a hump in the road... especially in some specific passages in the following pieces Dvořák – Cello Concerto in B Lalo – Cello Concerto in D Minor, Schumann – Cello Concerto in A minor, Shostakovich – Cello Concerto No.2 Edvard Grieg's Piano Concerto, Boccherini – Cello Concerto in B Flat, Brahms’s Rhapsody in G minor (Op.79; No.2), Alexander Scriabin, Piano Sonatas, Debussy’s Isle Joyeuse.

I know I am being very precise or delicate (?) on how the music sounds but I promise that it can be listened and felt.

Walking away from the room as I did to come back to my family, will be useful to see how the memory of the room sounds reflect on when I listen it again. 

To be frank, I am really surprised how far well this modest system sounds. I do not know if because I did all the work myself, instead of having my partner and dealer set it up, so I notice every incremental step, or the Tannoy Kensington, with the 2 REL, PL300, Steelhead, Acoustic Sound and Koetsu are just a fantastic combination. 

When the 2 new Solid-Tech Rack of Silence, the Montana and the Pathos Heritage arrive to the USA I will spend a couple of days rearranging the system and see where these components take the room.

Now that I think, maybe the extra energy can be modified with the Koetsu gain?

 

Pitch in music is relative frequency. Perfect pitch is when you can tune for 440 A (for example) without the tuning fork. If you are trying to tell me your perfect pitch is so perfect you know it is 28.5Hz, good one. Mine go down to 18.372 Hz but are down 3.8dB, unless I move my head 3" to the left and then absolutely flat. Try Bela Fleck Flight of the Cosmic Hippo, see what I mean. 

 

Thanks for telling me what pitch is.

I did not say I have perfect pitch :) I did not even know what it was. 

All I know is how the different notes sound, and since those notes sound bigger I deducted that it must be in the 20-32Hz. Maybe if I use REW I can confirm what I am hearing.

But it will not be until mid-late January until I go back to the USA.
