get yourself some marble/granite slabs cut that can fit between the monitor and the stand. eliminates most of the structural bound resonance so you get an accurate pure room reading
"Not everything that counts can be measured and not everything that can be measured counts." I have IsoAcoustic Oreas under a Polk Audio R400 and they definitely make a difference, I have Aperta's under my HTS 10s and they make a difference. However, I have Oreas under a pair of R200 AEs and I do not hear any difference with those. Experimentation seems to be the name of the game.
@@AdamE22030 yes I’m planning on it eventually and will make a video about when I get it! I think it looks like a great unit. I just wish that it had the ability to correct phase alignment like the Trinnov but it’s hard to justify spending $4700 more for the average person.
@@iamyila Good takeaway. I think foam would be a little better than nothing but it did have a smearing effect still. I used those foam pads for almost 8 years and wish I skipped them.
@@MichaelSorrentino1 see i don't think theyre better than nothing, better to use books or a concrete block, blue tac... i use the ISO pucks now, so they actualy absorb the front back driver movement so zero smearing..
@@iamyila I was looking at the pucks too but I wanted some more up/down angle flexibility for positioning. Colt Capperune has a great video on monitor stands if you haven’t seen that yet. He talked about the concrete blocks and other types too.
The speakers move with the energy using iso's as well, they have to, otherwise the energy would get transferred to the stands/desk. There is really very little difference as REW shows.

Interesting idea! How thick would they have to be to be effective?

Definitely agree with that quote!
Have you considered trying IK Multimedia ARC Studio to help with your room correction?

foam the key point is = smearing, the speakers will move with energy, so foam is pointless.

@@MichaelSorrentino1I’m happy with pucks now, and the angle but i get you..
