Auralex II ISO Series Acoustic Decoupling 4,5 x 38 x 38 cm black/charcoal

I purchased the Subdude as my last "hail Mary" before potentially being forced to replace my subwoofer with a higher-end sealed sub. I was experiencing ongoing bothersome bass issues with one of my home theatre setups. Hardwood floors with a Paradigm front firing, rear-ported sub, in the front corner of the room, resulting in boomy, uncontrolled bass. It was like this ugly wall of loose, muddy bass was consuming the whole front wall where my TV is, then reflecting to my seating position. Due to the room configuration, I do not have other options for placement of the sub. I started looking into room treatment options but there was no way I was going to install ugly wall mounted bass traps in a main floor family room, opposite a kitchen. I was wondering if the sub was transferring too much energy to the floor, which was then moving to the walls, causing additional resonance, generating additional sound waves, resulting in the terrible sound. I didn't have these issues when the sub was in my basement. I read hundreds of postings in different AV forums and countless reviews about the Subdude and how it will 'tighten up' bass, etc. I was thinking there's no way it can tighten up the bass but if it could potentially reduce vibrations, maybe there could be some value. Some 'haters' on the forums will say the subdude is useless and people's perception of the sound is strictly psychological. After reading a review from a professional publication, where they noted they always use an Aurelex Subdude when reviewing subwoofers, I decided to take a the plunge and gamble almost $90 on this product because I had nothing more to lose... it couldn't possibly make the sub sound worse. I installed the Subdude, actually upped the volume on my sub by 1 notch, then re-ran Audyssey room correction on my receiver, so the gain would be at -4. SVS recommends adjusting gain on the subwoofer so post calibration, it's set between -4 to -8, so I took their advice for my Paradigm sub. After manually adjusting speaker crossover settings in my receiver, I was ready to test. The sound quality difference was drastic. That ugly "wall" of bass I referred to earlier is completely gone. I am finally enjoying my sub in this room. The bass is now much cleaner and is not longer an annoying distraction. The bedroom above the sub also has less bass transfer via the walls but loud low frequency soundwaves will still easily penetrate through the floorboards. Although it may be cheaper to go to the hardware store, get a piece of wood, put some foam under it and built it yourself, I'm not sure you would get the same results, as this is firm acoustic foam and not something your furniture would be shipped in. Not all rooms are the equal. You'll have different furniture, flooring material and objects that affect sound reflection and absorption, so your results may be different but this Subdude solved my issue and saved me from potentially dropping $1000+ buying a new sub and I may have ended up with the exact same issues. I was hoping the Subdude would give a marginal improvement in sound. I was shocked how much difference it made in my situation. I'm now considering buying another Subdude for a different subwoofer. No regrets.

Ho acquistato i piedini di isolamento Auralex PlatFeet v2 (ISO Series) per disaccoppiare la mia attrezzatura dal pavimento e la differenza nella pulizia del suono è immediata. Sono un piccolo accessorio che fa un lavoro enorme nell'eliminare il rientro delle basse frequenze e i rumori di calpestio. ​I punti di forza: ​Disaccoppiamento acustico reale: Smorzano in modo efficace le risonanze e le vibrazioni strutturali trasmesse dal suolo verso le aste microfoniche o le basi d'ascolto. ​Suono più pulito e preciso: Riducendo i rumori meccanici e le vibrazioni a bassa frequenza, le registrazioni (o la resa audio complessiva) risultano decisamente più nitide e prive di artefatti. ​Installazione universale e immediata: Si applicano in un attimo sulle gambe delle aste a treppiede o sulle basi dedicate, rimanendo stabili e ben salde senza scivolare. ​Materiale resistente ad alta densità: La schiuma acustica della serie ISO è progettata per sostenere il peso della strumentazione senza deformarsi o degradarsi nel tempo. ​Se volete eliminare i rumori di fondo causati dalle vibrazioni del pavimento e migliorare la qualità delle vostre riprese o del vostro ascolto, gli Auralex PlatFeet v2 sono un investimento utilissimo. Consigliatissimi!

What I can say that others haven't? This actually works. I live in an apartment with shody build quality. You can feel the bass throughout the subfloor. Now with the sudude, it eliminated pretty much all vibration in the subfloor, walls tables, console, etc. I still have to fine tune the sub and settings but wow, the sub hits hard and tight. Not muddy at all as before. Plus my turnable plays much clearer. Will my downstairs neighbor complain. Maybe not so much as before. I'll have to try out other products from Auralex. Definitely a must have for apartment/condos or even home to get a better sounding sub. FYI, I have a Klipsch R-100SW. Probably not the best sub but sounds much better now with subdude.

RC集合住宅でMarshall Woburn IIIを使っているため、低音の振動を更に抑えたくて購入しました。 SubDude-IIの上にWoburn IIIを載せて使用しています。 設置して最初に感じたのは、低音そのものが弱くなるというより、以前よりボワつきが減って音がすっきりしたことでした。 私はガンマ波などをミックスした作業用BGMを4時間ほど流すこともあり、低音が長時間続く使い方をします。そのため、スピーカーをそのまま棚や床に置くより、こうしたアイソレーション製品を一枚挟んでおけるのは安心感があります。 設置は本当に載せるだけで、Woburn IIIのような大きめのスピーカーでも安定しています。 下の階への音が完全に消えるような「防音材」ではありませんが、実際に使って低音のボワつきが減ったことははっきり体感できました。 近隣への低音が気になる一軒家、集合住宅で ガチめのスピーカーやサブウーファーを使う人や、床・棚への振動を少しでも減らしておきたい人には試す価値があると思います。 価格も安い方であり、構造がシンプルで今後スピーカーを替えても使い回せそうなので私には良い買い物でした。 なお取り扱いメーカーさんの発送も迅速でした。
