Standing mounted speaker positioning


Recommended Posts

I had the same issue; in one of my systems the tweeters were too low, in the other the tweeter were too high. I bought a suitably sized pair of ISO-stands from IsoAcoustics for each system. The sound improved immensely, due to the tweeter being angled suitably, but also due to improved isolation. Highly recommended.

 

The manufacturer's website seems broken right now, but you can find a lot of references and reviews online. They are available on Amazon for good prices. I'm not sure what size your speakers would need, you would have to measure.

This video is for an older series, but looks are similar to ISO-xxxx and assembly is the same.

Hi audiobomber,

thanks for your reply.

Yeah they look perfect I’ll see if I can find any in the UK, cheers mate

 

Thanks davide256 Also

The IsoAcoustics site is back now, lots of info there. https://isoacoustics.com/

 

According to their calculator you would use the pro audio ISO-L8R200, but that is a legacy product, replaced by the higher performing ISO-200. The audiophile version is the Aperta200. I'm not sure whether they perform the same as the ISO-200, or whether the difference is aesthetic.

 

The Aperta is available in UK, on Amazon and here, probably elsewhere:

ISO-200 is widely available:
