IsoAcoustics Orea Bronze Isolation Puck (Each)

Eight Pounds a Puck, for CD Players, Preamps and Light Turntables

The IsoAcoustics OREA Bronze is sold individually. Each puck carries up to 8 pounds. Three or four support a CD player, a preamplifier, a compact integrated amp or a light turntable weighing between about 12 and 32 pounds.

A component never sits in silence. Bass from the speakers, footsteps on the floor and the hum of its own transformer all reach the chassis through the shelf. IsoAcoustics designs the OREA to hold that energy inside the isolator rather than pass it to the circuitry.

Fit, Load and Materials

Each Bronze carries up to 8 pounds. IsoAcoustics says to use at least three under a component, and three or four is typical. Three carry 24 pounds and four carry 32. No minimum is published, but a lightly loaded isolator never reaches its working range, so a 6-pound DAC belongs on the Graphite.

The housing is machined stainless steel with a bronze ring on the lower isolator. Each puck is 2 inches across and 1.1 inches tall, adding about an inch of height. On a crowded rack that inch decides whether the component clears the shelf above.

The concave upper flange grips a smooth chassis with a suction-cup effect and holds textured surfaces by friction. The pucks suit a rack shelf, a cabinet or a desk. Where the weight falls near a boundary, the IsoAcoustics online weight selector picks the rung for you.
