Stack Audio Auva Isolator

kennyc,

Thank you.

It is the best of the three. Kinda plain looking, and it doesn’t stick out in the room.

I hope you get them; I would be interested in your thoughts.

So if they apply for a patent in the good old USA they may be in violation of my patent for that method for legs and points under speakers and equipment. Also applies to resonance grounding of musical instruments. Isolation can only exist in the absence of matter. Oh they can’t grasp that reality. If they could then they would better understand how to make more and better music.TomD

I received my 3x EQ CSA 2’s yesterday; they came with wafer-thin, rubber like discs I assumed to sit on top of the EQ’s and act as a protection for the underside of the component, and/or to prevent slippage? I used them as such anyway

To be honest, even after reading and watching reviews, I thought the EQ’s would have an affect, but I tend to temper my expectations these days on tweaks like these, expecting maybe a slight improvement in separation within tracks, but nothing earth shattering.

I tried the EQ’s as a test to determine whether it would be worthwhile to go for the more expensive Auva 70’s for my speakers.

With the 30 day return option, seemed like a no brainier, plus I’m in the UK, so not much hassle to return if I wasn’t convinced.

Anyway, I’ve put aside my scepticism; these innocuous looking pucks seem to be the real deal.

I only had a chance to listen for about 40 minutes last night, but the change was immediate; greater separation as I thought, plus individual track components seem to be better locked in place within the sound stage. Vocals were the biggest noticeable in my short session; they seemed to come forward out of the plane of my speakers considerably. Which I find desirable.

I’ll be listening more over the weekend, but for now; yep, I’m in. These seem to be a worthwhile investment.

Forgot; I’ve put them under my Pontus 😊

painter24,

The Stack Audio products are one of the best bang for the bucks out there. Great product and service, and fast shipping to the USA too!

Soon, I will be comparing a set against the Critical Mass Footers. Which are way more expensive.

@ozzy thanks Ozzy. I think you're right on both fronts; great product, reasonable price. Josh at Stack Audio was really attentive, over multiple emails, fast shipping, great customer service. I'll definitely be going back for more EQs and the Auva 70s

Looking forward to reading your comparison with the Critical Mass footers 👍
