A - up to 11 kg From the company that pioneered high compliant air suspension of components, Townshend Audio present the latest Seismic Sink which dispenses with the traditional air suspension now replaced with a highly sophisticated spring bellows air damped suspension system that is fully adjustable and totally maintenance free. The concept derives from the award winning Seismic Sink and the Seismic Sink Stand. These trail-blazing products have conclusively shown the Hi-Fi and video world how vitally important it is to thoroughly isolate all source components from ground and floor borne vibrations. Record players, CD and DVD players, D to A converters, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, solid state or tube. All are affected! Vibration causes the sound to become closed in, grainy, indistinct, edgy, hard, sibilant, blurred and un-involving. The sound stage is dramatically reduced and subtle reverberant detail is masked. In the case of video systems, the picture loses focus, colour purity degrades and grain increases. The Seismic Sink comprises a spring bellows air damped variable Q suspension system suspending a vibration eliminating constrained layer mass damped isolation platform that is placed under your equipment. Vibrations present in the supporting surface are prevented from reaching the equipment due to the filtering action of the suspension units, just as the suspension smoothes out the ride of a motor car. In addition, any residual air borne vibration is absorbed in the constrained layer damped surface. The unique suspension system incorporates a variable Q resistive air damping system that functions as a very high Q mass/spring system that has exceptional isolation above the 3Hz system resonance for the optimum vibration isolation when handling micro vibrations where the damping is virtually zero. When the system is disturbed, the damping immediately increases to a very high level to kill un-wanted oscillation so that the system rapidly comes to rest., reverting to the high Q state. The perfect equipment isolator! The weight range that may be accommodated is enormous! The lightest weight being half a kilo (1lb) up to ??kg. For the heavier loads, extra spring/damper feet are added. Even way off centre loads may be accommodated. For example, valve/tube amplifiers with the transformers all at the rear. How well does it work? . . . . The increase in clarity is best described as fractal! i.e. hidden layers of fine detail are revealed that were previously masked by the effects of noise. Whether it is CD, LP or Laser Disc, whether it is tubes or solid state, digital or analogue, low level or high level processing stages, the results are always the same. Clarity, definition, silkiness, relaxing, large, open, free, fast, louder, natural. . . These are the words that spring immediately to mind. The effect is not subtle. So convincing is the effect that we, at Townshend Audio, have coined the phrase "the one note dem" to sum up the phenomenon, as it only takes an instant to hear the difference. Lets
us know any specific requirement and we will ask
