Best Isolation Device for Speakers?

Has anyone had a chance to directly compare different speaker isolation tweaks? I am wondering because of the recent thread on the Sistrum stand. I know that many of these things have been discussed in other posts, but there is not alot of direct comparison among them. I suspect that most of these are excellent, so if anyone has some information on their specific sonic impact, that would be helpful. I have a pair of Thiel 7.2s. Some of the ones I am considering:

Aurios Pro
Sistrum Speaker Stand
Mana Speaker Stand
Stillpoints
Audiopoints

Thanks,
Rob

You should also add Polycrystal to your list. I'm perfectly happy with mine although I did not A/B with the items on your list.

I would also add to that list Black Diamond Racing cones and pucks.

Be real clear about the Sistrum products/Audiopoints and their team. They are in the business of resonance transference. That's coupling not isolating/decoupling. Now that you know that: couple. Go on their website to read all about coupling, the benefits, and the contrasts to decoupling/isolating. You'll never go back to those "isolating" thoughts. Do your homework and let us know where you go. peace, warren

I am using Audio Resolution platforms under my VMPS speakers. They are similar to Symposium. They actually drain vibrations away from the cabinet, from the floor, AND from the cabinet itself.

I noticed a BIG difference in bass up to the lower mids when I put them in.

I've also heard them used very well in better-braced cabinets, like Totems and JM Lab's.

FYI: www.audio-resolution.com

BTW, VERY good advice in general, Warrenh; always good to know about the different functions devices perform. I'd suggest reading the site he mentions, as well as the Symposium and Audio Resolution sites.
