Description :
Isonoe isolation, if you are serious about sound quality or are troubled with feedback in your sound system, then you need the Isonoe isolation feet. As a retro fit to many industry standard turntables and CD-players, this British designed and manufactured accessory is uniquely postioned to offer you real results in a stunning package.
"The system embodies numerous mechanisms that inhibit the transfer of vibration:
The central cradle mechanism (application filed with the Patent Office) is formed from a visco-elastic polymer able to deflect vibrational energies across a broad bandwidth.
The body and hub are made from a specific grade of magnesium alloy imbued with exceptionally high rigidity, implemented to maximise the ratio of stiffness between the elastomer cradle and the alloy (the higher the ratio in favour of the alloy, the greater the efficacy of the elastomer cradle).
Stainless-steel bearings in the base of the outer body block the transfer of energy by keeping the point of physical contact area between surfaces to a minimum (akin to a more contemporary version of spikes in hi-fi)."
Applications :
Rather than hinder trick-DJs by enabling a "jelly wobble" effect to exist when they make adjustments, as with more primitive isolation systems, the Isonoe system acts as a 2-way shock absorber which cushions forces induced into the platter / plinth by the DJ's hands, without springing back abruptly.
Excessive lateral movement by isolation systems employing air, springs or suchlike, creates uneven wear on both the stylus, and more importantly the sides of the vinyl groove. If the plinth / platter are subject to sufficient force, the Isonoe system will spring back in a gentle, "viscous" manner, whereby it returns to the horizontal state gradually and smoothly (compression of the visco-elastic polymer coupling will only occur in incidences of extreme physical abuse).
"Wow" constitutes one of the most insidious forms of colouration, even in its most subtle form - pendulum-like lateral movement by any turntable will result in a disconcerting increase in wow.
A typical DD turntable weighs 12kg, therefore the bearings in the base will not slide around if lateral forces are exerted (e.g: "back cueing") upon the supported device.
Specifications :
Designed utilising cutting-edge 3D CAD modelling and simulation, the Isonoe isolation system is machined from raw magnesium alloy billets by multi-axis CNC machinery to within a tolerance of 1 micron.
