IsoAcoustics Isolator OREA INDIGO

Pros

They work real, but there is a nuance.

Minuses

Perhaps this is not a minus, but a feature. Read more in the review.

Review

Earlier left a review about the work of Indigo at the source. I decided to check on the Maratz PM-Ki Pearl Lite on the amplifier. All amplifiers of this brand are characterized by a soft sound and an excellently worked out middle. After a small upgrade, I managed to increase the detail in the sound of my amplifier, without prejudice to the initial. And now I installed Indigo under it ... Yes, the effect was not slow to wait, because for this vibro insulators have been created. But there is a small feature ... Indigo will go excellently where there is excessive brightness and sharpness in the sound. With them, he acquires a “tube” character of the sound, enveloping at low frequencies and slightly softened in high, but without loss of clarity. Another thing is on the sources ... In this case, only a positive effect, which was presented earlier.

Review

The vibration output function is fully performed (it is very simply registered to the touch - the fingertips have very high sensitivity). In my setup on one surface, both sabers and equipment are installed on one surface. Therefore, it was important to achieve vibration outputs between the columns and equipment. This was achieved with the help of four ISOACOUSTICS OREA Indigo legs. The total "carrying capacity" of 4 such legs is more than 28 kg. The total weight of the equipment, which consists of 4 components, is about 14 kg. (Therefore, I decided to choose Indigo, not Bronze). There are no moving parts in the equipment, so it was limited to installing the legs under the lower component (the components are installed on each other). As a result, it was possible to fully extinguish the vibration, which was transmitted to the equipment from the columns. The effect turned out to be quite audible and manifested itself in a more distinct drawing of small details, which is especially noticeable in the upper part of the spectrum and the best construction of the scene. The sensations from listening to music have become more pleasant. The effect also manifested during the reproduction of vocals - the features of the performer's voice became better heard. Additionally, I decided to check the effect that the vibration output has on the speakers. To do this, he set one of the sabs directly on these legs (at the same time, he withstood the requirement in the direction of installing the legs under the column). The effect, as expected, manifested itself in the disappearance of the detail of the bass, which especially negatively affected microdynamics (playing at low volume). I must say that a high detail at low frequencies was achieved by strict installation of speakers with spikes on a heavy granite base. With the weight of each column and a subwoofer of 10 kg. The weight of the base is about 24 kg. Thus, I confirmed for myself that only at the expense of vibration output it is impossible to improve the sound of the columns. To improve sound, first of all, a heavy base is necessary as a vibration absorber of the column (for connecting with this base, spikes are needed). But to exclude the mutual influence of the columns through the vibration, a vibration output of the base is needed from the surface on which it is installed. That. In the future, I plan to install 3 supports of ISOACOUSTICS OREA BORDEAUX under the bases of each column and a sub.
