Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
these were sold cheap to find a place in the market.
now, etablished, they follow normal concept. not overpriced i think.
hey, if you do mind the price, these are very easy to fabricate yourself.
you might even pimp them with higher grade rubber.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
While subs are not a bad place to start, I’ve found them about equally helpful under everything, especially everything that’s on the floor (speakers) and bottom shelf. Four are usually better than three for components, and anything over 15 lbs or so do better with HD, the site’s table aside. Perhaps a very solid floor might be an exception to that. I would say though that given the price rise, Gaia’s might be more price effective for lighter or mid weight speakers (they haven’t gone up in price). I may check out the II under 78 lb actives soon, although 4 x 2” EVPs seem as good under them as 68 pounders so far. Just also give the Gaia a lot of weight leeway on their upper end spec, at least 10% and perhaps as much as 20% or so, to be sure (e.g., Gaia II for a 55 lb speaker, vs. the Gaia I spec of up to 72 lbs).

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Since no one has posted any application pics, here are the EVP's under my REL 212SE sub.
Love them!

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Here's a couple more close up. The Oppo ones are LD, and note that the (68 lb) speaker front right one (HD) has a neoprene washer on top for leveling and looks displaced a bit about halfway up. They do that, without losing effectiveness. Best to locate the speakers first, then place them underneath, but in tweaking a speaker's position that's not possible. Perhaps the 4" would be more resilient, but they were and remain a lot more money.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Here are the EVPs under a Symposium stand with the REL 212s on top of that. Better bass, way less transfer to the room structure. Works well for me. IMG_0305.jpg

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
I’ve been considering them for placement under my new subs. At $189 ea for the 4” product (I need 8) I’m likely to pursue a different solution. Maybe I’ll give the ISO Acosutics ISO-Pucks or the Orea Bourdeax a try.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
How much do your subs weigh? The Music Room in Colorado has good prices on the Gaia models and HiFi Shark is a good place to watch for the used and sometimes new market.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Each sub weights 84 pounds plus 34 pounds for the sub platform - 118 pounds for each channel.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
If that platform’s bottom has threaded holes then Gaia 1’s would work. The Music Room advertises them for $430/4 (hifishark.com) and you might do better asking them what they’d be willing to do for 8. That’s a lot of weight, and I can’t imagine Iso-pucks or Oreas cutting it sonically. Beyond that, the Townshend platform products are very well regarded, but they are out of England, so the importer adds a cut. Home | speaker isolation.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Mike,
You could also potentially use 2 of the new EVP Platform, one under the front of the sub and one at the back, rather than four, one at each corner. I'd price them out and see what's least expensive. Also, I know these are somewhat pricey for the 4" square versions, but my recommendation is to order them and try them out.
Here's something to consider: Yes, they're a bit pricey at $189/each for the 4" square versions, but here's the deal...they are WAY less expensive than having your room re-constructed to solve the same exactly problems these will solve by putting them under your sub.
They come with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can use them for 30-days, and if they don't work out, return them for a full refund.
Oh, and for a sub, the correct IsoAcoustic footer is an Gaia II or Gaia I, depending on the weight of the sub. I don't think the ISO-Pucks are designed to support the weight of your subs. Moreover, the Orea are for components, the Gaia series are for speakers and subs. Different products for different applications.
Please keep us apprised of what you decide, and what works out for you, but I will say that putting these under my sub made one of the biggest improvements I've ever made to my system because they made the room considerably quieter.
Cheers!

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
I use 3 with my Lampi TRP too, but that's only because I'm hesitant to take off the feet that come with, which are supposed to be an isolating product. I use four under everything else, though, based on comparisons.
I think you meant Gaia I or II. If you check the weights, the II only goes up to 121 lbs/4. What I learned using III's (72 lbs max) under 68 lb speakers, running close to the limit doesn't cut it. The EVP's provided easily superior isolation to the III's in that situation. Sean Morrison of Isoacoustics had suggested them, then later apologized for misguiding me, saying leave at least 10%. My thinking is more leeway. In any case, I have a set of II's and may give them a try one of these days.Lampizator Atlantic TRP dac, Supratek Chardonnay preamp, Ric Schulz modified Oppo 203, ATC SCM19A active speakers, PS Audio PowerBase, P15 Regenerator AC-12 power cords, AV Roomservice EVPs, MG Audio AG2 XLR/RCA ICs, Purist Audio Design Neptune S/PDIF & HDMI cables, iFi S/PDIF Purifier w/ Paul Hynes SR4 LPS, SR Orange fuses, Furutech GTX-D (R) outlet, Samsung F8000 HDTV, Audioquest Carbon HDMI cable, CATV with Tii-220 cable filter, JL Audio e-110 subs in waiting.

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
Thanks for your thoughts Stephen.
The Iso Puck 76 and Orea Bordeaux would be able to handle the weight without issues. Also looking at the Gaias. The decision will depend on being able to get a platform to accommodate them.
As for the A/V Room products, the plates are much more expensive than the EVPs._______________
