IsoAcoustics ISO-155 monitor stands will vastly improve your monitoring accuracy. Get tighter, more extended bass and more solid stereo imaging from your studio monitors, without investing in new monitors. Designed according to IsoAcoustics’ PIF (Placement, Isolation, Focus) principles of acoustic design, the ISO-155 delivers immediately noticeable and dramatic results. By decoupling your monitors from supporting surfaces, minimizing reflections, and ensuring proper focus, your existing monitors will reveal a level of accuracy you may not have known they were capable of. The ISO-155 improves upon previous models with a sleek, lower-profile design and newly formulated isolators. Increasing your monitoring accuracy leads directly to better-sounding recordings — and IsoAcoustics ISO-155 monitor stands make it possible without replacing your monitors.
IsoAcoustics ISO-155 monitor stands help position your speakers according to accepted acoustic principles. Proximity to nearby surfaces can cause undesirable reflections that smear the stereo image and negatively affect frequency response. ISO-155 stands raise your monitors above supporting surfaces and away from nearby boundaries to reduce reflections, resulting in a clearer, more accurate stereo image.
IsoAcoustics ISO-155 monitor stands isolate your speakers from supporting surfaces. Decoupling your monitors allows the speaker enclosure to float independently, reducing the transfer of energy into surrounding objects. The result is tighter, cleaner bass with improved low-frequency definition.
Raising and tilting your studio monitors to form an equilateral triangle between the monitors and your listening position — with tweeters precisely at ear level — creates an ideal nearfield monitoring environment. The IsoAcoustics ISO-155 monitor stands allow precise articulation of your speakers into this position, delivering pinpoint focus and turning your monitors into true reference tools that accurately reveal the signal you’re feeding them.
The ISO Stands are the latest generation of IsoAcoustics stands designed specifically for studio monitors. Updated from the popular ISO-L8R series, the ISO Stands feature a lower-profile design, a new frame structure, and an improved isolator formulation for enhanced performance. The ISO-155 isolation stand measures 6.1" (155mm) wide by 7.5" (190mm) deep and is rated to support studio monitors weighing up to 40 lbs.
Offering 14 variations of height and tilt, the ISO-155 helps optimize monitor placement and bring tweeters to precise ear level. IsoAcoustics’ patented isolation system provides superior decoupling from the supporting surface, while the stand’s energy-biasing design keeps sound energy aligned with the speaker cones for greater clarity and focus.
In a typical Desktop Audio Workstation (DAW) setup, the listener is positioned 3 to 4 feet from the monitors with ear level approximately 20 inches above the work surface. Raising and tilting the monitors to the optimal listening position can be easily achieved using IsoAcoustics ISO-155 stands.
The isolators manage speaker energy to reduce vibrations that would otherwise resonate through the supporting surface. This minimizes dissonant sounds in the listening environment and prevents unwanted vibration transfer to adjacent rooms.
Internal reflections occur when vibrations travel back up the speaker cabinet, causing smear that collapses the stereo image by centering replicated artifacts. IsoAcoustics isolators reduce these internal reflections, eliminating smear and resulting in a more accurate, spacious, and natural stereo image.
