Iso Acoustics Orea Isolation Pucks

 

Provides extraordinary levels of isolation for high fidelity audio components and turntables.

2019 Stereophile Product of the Year Winner

“The Orea Bordeaux pucks make a profound improvement to the performance of my loudspeakers, which now disappear from the soundstage almost entirely, image with even greater clarity and resolve micro-details that were unknowingly masked by the previously higher noise floor. These amazing little pucks are among the best value for money upgrades that can be made to any hi-fi system.”  – Richard Barclay, The Ear (Full Review)

“The nature of the sonic enhancements from the Orea Indigos increase focus, precision and an essential tonal realism while providing important frequency discipline that results in an excellent sonic response. Frankly, the more feet you buy, the better your hi-fi will sound.”Paul Rigby, The Audiophile Man (Full Review)

“When used under electronics with a weight that is at least half of what they are specified to support and over they load well and work tremendously to improve the musicality of the system. Dynamics are freer, vocals are more natural and the entire detailed picture being reported from the loudspeakers has more ambiance, presence and shape. They offer fantastic isolation support and vibration control to a huge amount of equipment and applications at a price that is simply unheard of in this somewhat overpriced industry.” – Dan Worth, HiFi Pig

OREA Series: Eliminates parasitic vibrations and provides greater sound clarity and focus. The OREA’s are ideal for electronic components including Amplifiers, DAC’s, CD Players, Speakers, and Turntables. Made of machined stainless steel, these isolators have a low-profile design to minimize any increase in height.

Each OREA model is designed with a different weight capacity. They each have a coloured ring on the bottom isolator that denotes the model and weight capacity. The OREA series are packaged individually to allow greater flexibility when determining the number of units to use. We recommend a minimum of 3 units under each component, depending on weight.

Greater Sound Clarity

The upper flange of the OREA’s are designed to provide a suction cup like effect and adhere to the underside of the component, while the lower flange adheres to the supporting surface. All the energy is managed within the core of the OREA’s, which are tuned to work within specific weight ranges. This results in greater sound clarity and a more open soundstage providing authentic, three-dimensional sound.

Works With or Without Feet

The existing feet on an audio component may connect well and fit nicely around the perimeter of the OREA isolator. Alternatively, you may get better performance by either removing the feet entirely or placing the OREA’s beside the existing feet to have them connect directly to the chassis or base of the component.

Weight Capacity

The OREA’s are designed to be used in multiples to match the weight of the component or speaker. The total weight capacity is calculated as follows:

Total Weight Capacity = [Weight cap. per isolator] x [Qty of Isolators]

Quantity of isolators Graphite 4lbs (1.8kg) / unit Bronze 8lbs (3.6kg) / unit Indigo 16lbs (7.2kg) / unit Bordeaux 32lbs (14.5kg) / unit
3 12 lbs. (5.4 kg) 24 lbs. (10.8 kg) 48 lbs. (21.6 kg) 96 lbs. (43.5 kg)
4 16lbs (7.2 kg) 32lbs (14.4 kg) 64lbs (28.8 kg) 128lbs (58 kg)
5 20lbs (9 kg) 40lbs (18 kg) 80lbs (36 kg) 160lbs (72.5 kg)
6 24lbs (10.8 kg) 48lbs (21.6 kg) 96lbs (43.2 kg) 192lbs (87 kg)

It is common to use 3 or 4 OREA isolators for each component or speaker, but keep in mind that it is most important to stay within the weight capacity of the OREA isolator.

The weight distribution of the component can also be taken into account. If for example the component is heaviest at the back, then it is common to use 3 isolators with 2 positioned at the back corners and 1 positioned front/center.
