Strength:
Best bang for the buck in isolating resonance when it comes to tube audio gears.
Weakness:
They smear if not installed with protective liner underneath the pods.
After 3 years listening to the same system and music materials which I thought was very good at the time. Boy, was I very wrong after investing on 8 pcs of Model 2 of these vibrapods. Installed 4 under my tube preamp and 4 on my tube phono preamp (in a sandwich config. as described on the product manual).

Strength:
Good Isolation, Rather cheap for what they do. But how they do it - Priceless!
Weakness:
Can stain things if not careful I feel I need to endorse these. Especially after reading the last review. Please note the following: 1) Pods come in a set of 4 for $6.00. 2) For each catagory the weight carrying capacity is per "pod" EG. #1 carries 2-4 lbs. per "pod". So an object weighing 10 lbs. would need a minimum of 3 #1''s. 3) Even vibrapods own literature tells you to put something under them when in use. If you don''t you will get stains on things, even furniture with them.(please note that this is only from the bottom,or flat, part). I recommend using AOL CDrom disks under them. They are free at places like target that have AOL display stands, and they work great! 4) Seems to work just as good as "BlueTack" but without the mess. These things REALLY, REALLY, REALL, do work. I have noticed a big difference in the sound and picture from my DVD player. But, if your ears are not use to the difference it can be hard to spot. I know that what I did was listen with them in place for about a week. Then I removed them to see if I could tell a difference. Yes, I could. First of all, the picture on movies was cleaner. Not as fuzzy and the colors seemed to be just a little more saturated. Second, sound: I noticed a more tightly defined sound stage with less image smear and more depth to the bass region especially from about 200-400Hz. Even the bass from 150 and lower was punchier and not as muddy in sound. This is probably due to the dampening of vibration. I can only recommend these for components the have a vibration to them or can be effected by them. Such as DVD,cassette deck, Speakers, or Turn table for those with LPs. My advice is to try it. I think, keeping the above cations in mind, that you will be pleasantly suprized. Similar Products Used: Blue Tack |

I would like to inform readers about a fairly new product called " VIBRAPOD ". These saucer shaped feet are placed beneath audio / video components to enhance performance by isolating them from vibration . I put these " pods " under my cd-player and experienced the following : 1) a deeper and wider soundstage , 2) tighter and deeper bass , 3)better separation of all vocals and instruments, and many other benefits as well. Another upside of this product is the cost of only $6.00 apiece. To those interested ,this product can be found at http://www.vibrapod.com . |

Around a year ago I reviewed this wonderful product and would like to say these are the real deal at the cost of only $ 6.00 per pod . These feet ( pods )when placed under audio / video components , any type of speakers , or stands will enhance their performance like any other accessory such as interconnets (patch cords) , speaker wires , etc. . They also have a 30 day money back guarantee and part of proceeds go to several different charities . So what do you have to lose . 4 1/2 stars for nothing is perfect . |

I highly suggest placing these beneath any type of speaker if the situation permits . By putting 4 pods between both speakers and the top platforms of spiked speaker stands you'll hear a deeper , wider soundstage , better separation ( focus ) , tighter bass , drums , and many other improvements as well . The " PODS " also can be placed between bottom of floor standing speakers and floor ( need to make platform for placement on rugs ) . They come in 4 weight categories : no. - 1's ( 2-4 lbs) , 2's ( 4-8 lbs.) , 3's ( 8- 12 lbs. ) , etc . EXAMPLE : If speakers weigh 10 pounds each would use 4 no. 1's per speaker . The pods coast $ 6.00 each with a 30 day money back guarantee if not satisfied . Go to www.vibrapod.com for more details . |
