Up for sale is a used Townshend Seismic Isolation Pods (Set of 4, Type B 10~21 kg per set)! Positioned under any piece of equipment, Seismic Isolation Pods will dramatically improve the sound by breaking the acoustic connection between the audio system and structural vibrations in the room. The Seismic Isolation Pod is a Seismic Load Cell™ with a circular foot attached to the lower end cap for stability. The length may be adjusted by turning the top end cap, which allows easy levelling of audio equipment placed on a set of four Pods. There is a soft felt protective piece on the top and bottom faces of the end caps to allow for easy positioning and to prevent scratching. A singular Seismic Pod is available with seven different weight range capacities, varying progressively from less than 1 kg up to 50kg. Virtually any weight of equipment can be isolated. For asymmetric components such as a valve (tube) amplifier with the transformers at the rear, different load capability Seismic Load Cells™ can be used to balance the load.The maximum load when using four type F Pods is 200kg (440lb). For loads greater than this, simply add more Seismic Pods. Each Seismic Pod is screw adjustable in height to allow for out of balance loads where the centre of gravity of the component is not near its geometrical centre. If the degree of out of balance is too large, then it is suggested to use additional Seismic Pods as necessary, to balance the load.

If the degree of out of balance is too large, then it is suggested to use unequal springs or add an additional Load Cell for fine adjustments. The Importance of Vibration IsolationVibrations affect the reproduction of sound through hi-fi systems. Although many of these are small and may go largely unnoticed, vibrations have a negative impact on the quality of sound in virtually all hi-fi components.Turntables are highly sensitive to vibration, which raises the noise floor, degrading the sound not to mention stylus jump due to footfall.With silver-disc players, vibration affects the laser mechanism and the crystal oscillators introducing severe sound-degrading jitter.With tube or valve amplifiers vibration rattles the microphonic electrodes, especially the grids.Transistor amplifiers have microphonic components, including capacitors and connecting wires which move relative to one and another generating rogue voltages. All of these mechanisms will degrade the delicate audio signal.Computers, streamers and DACs are highly susceptible to mechanical noise as they all contain vibration sensitive crystal oscillators.Rigidly spike or cone mounted speakers transmit energy into the floor radiating vibration throughout the room and ultimately, through your rack and into your equipment. This seriously degrades performance as described above. Spike and cone mounted speakers cause the whole room structure to vibrate, often resulting in an unrealistic boomy bass whilst masking subtle detail. Further, this unwanted structural vibration can seriously irritate your neighbours.The Seismic Isolation Pod is a Seismic Load Cell™ with a circular foot attached to the lower end cap for stability. The length may be adjusted by turning the top end cap, which allows easy levelling of audio equipment placed on a set of Pods. There is a soft felt protective piece on the top and bottom faces of the end caps to allow for easy positioning and to prevent scratching.The secret is to fully float your whole Hi Fi System independently from the speakers and the floor. Townshend have devised a complete solution that to allow this to be done in an optimum way.Seismic Load Cell™The key component is the Townshend Seismic Load Cell™. The Seismic Load Cell™ consists of a high quality alloy steel compression spring surrounded by a flexible synthetic rubber jacket with two end plates. Screw threads in each plate facilitate height adjustment and provide attachment points. A movement-sensitive, air-resistance damper rapidly dissipates low frequency oscillation caused by disturbing the suspended equipment. Seismic Load Cells™ are very ‘soft’ and allow free movement in all three dimensions; up/down, left/right and back/forth. This unique solution blocks all deleterious vibration from 3Hz upwards and from all directions. As the frequency increases, the isolation gets progressively greater, ensuring that virtually no vibration can pass from and to the suspended equipment. As each hi-fi component is isolated, the sound progressively improves.

This is important not just for obvious centre-of-gravity reasons, but because boundary proximity affects low frequency performance, so raising a speaker up too far will make for a leaner bass than originally intended.PLEASE CONFIRM WHICH SPEAKERS YOU OWN SO CORRECT LOAD CELLS ARE FITTED OR PLEASE SEE OUR PODIUM WEIGHT CHART PICTURE AND SIZE CHART IN THE PHOTOS. THANK YOUTOWNSHEND AUDIO SEISMIC PODIUMSHi Fi +THE EDITORS CHOICE 2020TOWNSHEND PODIUM Townshend Audio has been making products that break the link between speakers and ground borne vibration since the 1990s, and these have been constantly. The Seismic Podium adds a mere 2cm to the height of a loudspeaker. This is important not just for obvious centre-of-gravity reasons, but because boundary proximity affects low frequency performance, so raising a speaker up too far will make for a leaner bass than originally intended. The Seismic Podium is also rather more professionally executed and finished than earlier designs. The central footplate is designed to withstand the abuse of spikes, but in most cases you are better off just placing the speaker on the platform ‘bareback’. The Podiums have adjustment for floor level and some adjustment for weight displacement. This last is useful because the weight of many loudspeakers is not evenly distributed. “The effect of putting a speaker on the Seismic Podiums is quite dramatic,” says Jason Kennedy, adding that people who heard loudspeakers on and off the Podiums, “couldn’t quite believe the improvement in coherence and timing it wrought, and the extent to which the sound is able to escape the boxes. Then there’s the bass, which is suddenly incredibly articulate, three dimensional, and powerful.” In sum, he said, “In all honesty, I’d say you don’t know how good your speakers are until you isolate them from the floor.”The way it removes the speakers interaction with its surroundings is mind blowing, bringing clarity to the entire frequency range that enables it to communicate more effectively with the listener. You havent truly heard how your speakers can perform until youve placed it on one of these Seismic Podiums.Townshend Seismic Podiums produce a result that goes way beyond what you might expect from ‘speakers on springs’. To get an improvement in absolute resolution, precision of timing and solidity of stereo image from something so apparently simple is extraordinary. These things really do change the game, move the goalposts, and revolutionize the way we should think about speaker support. This is not an accessory… it’s an essential.Enthusiastically recommended.Lee Dunkley - Hi-Fi Choice.“So what do Seismic Podiums do for sound quality? If I said “everything” you wouldn’t believe me, but the answer is not far off. They dramatically increase low level resolution so you can hear more detail, they clean up the bass like you wouldn’t believe and the improve dynamics and speed.”Jason KennedyDesigned as a range to accommodate any size and weight of speaker – standmount plus stand, floorstander or subwoofer – the Seismic Podium breaks the acoustic connection between the floor and the speaker, preventing the passage of deleterious vibrations both to and from the speaker cabinets. For a detailed explanation of why this is an absolute necessity before any speaker can perform to its true potential, read ‘Earthquakes on hi-fi’. Floated on Seismic Isolation Podiums, speakers are freed from the ever-present seismic activity and room/floor interactions that seriously degrade sound quality. The result is simply magical, allowing listeners to hear into their favourite music in a way they were never able to previously. When under your speakers, they will give you immediate improvements in overall sound by preventing speaker generated vibration from entering the floor and sound from entering your speakers. By eliminating the resonance between the speaker-cabinet mass and the floor, the sound will be noticeably clearer, much more tuneful, controlled and natural. Bass boom is significantly reduced and there will be a far larger, much deeper and wider sound stage. The sound becomes natural and more enjoyable. As many have already witnessed, the improvements are a revelation and a true pleasure – not least because severing the acoustic link between the speaker and the floor allows playback at more realistic volume levels without annoying the neighbours! Available in five standard sizes (or to special order to accommodate true behemoths), each Podium platform utilizes Townshend’s innovative ‘Captive’ Load Cell technology to provide a stable four-square footprint that extends well beyond the perimeter of the speaker cabinet. This also allows easy fine levelling adjustment of each Load Cell via a rotatable top cap while, on the bottom, is an adjustable foot to compensate for out-of true floors. The tough black steel platform accommodates any shape of medium to large speaker or sub-woofer, with or without spikes. The Seismic Podiums are suitable for wood, tile or carpeted floors. Total speaker height is increased by only 20mm (3/4”). The Seismic Podium is the optimum solution for comprehensive speaker support on a grand scale. Whether as part of a professional installation or domestic one, the Seismic Podiums command ultimate support for your speakers and sub woofers, with no compromises. They will give you an unprecedented performance.The Podium features an innovative captive Load Cell on each corner.

The sound becomes natural and more enjoyable.“The Editor and two other HiFi+ reviewers already use Podiums under their loudspeakers, and speaker companies are taking note, too. This is a real loudspeaker game changer and could spell the end of loudspeaker spikes for many list eners.”HiFi + review Jason Kennedy The effect of putting a speaker on the Seismic Podiums is quite dramatic. I did the demonstration to the guys from DALI recently when they brought round a pair of Epicon 8 speakers for a forthcoming review. They couldn’t quite believe the improvement in coherence and timing it wrought, and the extent to which the sound is able to escape the boxes. Then there’s the bass, which is suddenly incredibly articulate, three dimensional, and powerful. This is true of every speaker that I have tried on these bases, and the irony is that the sound is faster and more fine detailed than it is with spikes. There is none of the edginess and emphasis on leading edges that spikes produce, yet there is greater immediacy. In all honesty, I’d say you don’t know how good your speakers are until you isolate them from the floor.Given the thirty plus years of spike indoctrination that we have been treated to, this is a hard pill to swallow for many, but when you find out that Alan Sircom is using Townshend Podiums under his Wilson Duette IIs and Paul Messenger, one of the earliest and most fervent spike enthusiasts, is also using Townshend Isolation under his Bowers & Wilkins 800 Diamonds, it makes you realize that anyone who really listens will appreciate their benefits. I took a pair of Podiums to a friend with Wilson Benesch Chimera speakers a few months back; he didn’t like the bronze adjusters that the earlier models featured, but loved the sound and had to get some. It seems the bigger and more revealing the speaker, the more it benefits from isolation. My friend’s system literally came alive when we put them in; it opened up and started to do stuff that you wouldn’t believe achievable without a major component upgradeGenuine speaker isolation is hard to achieve, but thanks to decades of R&D, Townshend Audio has managed to make an isolation base that cuts out energy down to 3Hz and does so in a stable and easily installed fashion. Now all the company has to do is let the audio world hear the benefits. It won’t be an easy job, and there will always be those who prefer the character that spikes bring. But for anyone that’s genuinely interested in what’s on the recording, on hearing more music, they represent a major breakthrough in the pursuit of high fidelity, and that is what this game is all about. But don’t take my word for it, get a demonstration, see the light, and hear the difference!Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums are suitable for all Loudspeakers and Sub-WoofersProduce a wider and deeper sound stage.Enhance clarity throughout the whole frequency range.Improve bass definition.Eliminate structure-borne feedback between the speaker and vibration sensitive equipment.Allow for neighbor friendly high level listening.Eliminate irritating boom caused by coupling through the floor to adjacent rooms.

All in excellent condition. “So what do Seismic Podiums do for sound quality? If I said “everything” you wouldn’t believe me, but the answer is not far off. They dramatically increase low level resolution so you can hear more detail, they clean up the bass like you wouldn’t believe and the improve dynamics and speed.”Jason Kennedy Produce a wider and deeper sound stage.Enhance clarity throughout the whole frequency range.Improve bass definition.Eliminate structure-borne feedback between the speaker and vibration sensitive equipment.Allow for neighbor friendly high level listening.Eliminate irritating boom caused by coupling through the floor to adjacent rooms. Will be very well packed and promptly sent via tracked courier delivery.

Looks to be in wonderful condition as shown, unfortunately I do not have the expertise to test it. Sold as is and as seen. No returns. Thanks for looking! The level bubble is currently in the middle and centered as seen. Shipping could certainly change that but it is easily adjusted with the bottom wheels. Measures approximately 17 x 14. Serial #1773 Model 1HD

Townshend Audio Seismic Sink 17 x 14 | Untested, As Is. Obtained as part of a big electronics lot. We do not know how to ensure that it works as it should and is therefore sold as is. It appears to be in good condition and shifts when pressure is applied. The model number written on the back is worn off and cannot be read.

Townshend Seismic Vibration Isolation Platform Size 1 - 43x30cm (17x12) 1-200kg RRP £630 THIS LISTING IS FOR A SIZE 1 PLATFORM - PLEASE SEND A MESSAGE FOR A PRICE IF ANOTHER SIZE IS REQUIRED. Any questions re. discounts, shipping etc. - please call.Delivers wider and deeper soundstagesImproves bass definitionReduced muddiness and smearMakes transients clearerENHANCES CLARITY ACROSS THE FREQUENCY RANGEEspecially designed to isolate individual components such as CD players, turntables, DACs, preamplifiers, power amplifiers and streamers from vibration. The Seismic Isolation Platform includes a durable slim steel top plate that integrates unobtrusively under any hi-fi component. The acoustically dead constrained-layer damped plate combined with a Seismic Load Cell™ attached to each corner is the ultimate combination to absorb and isolate unwanted vibration, including structural, air-borne and that generated by the hi-fi equipment. ULTRA THIN PLATFORM DISAPPEARS UNDER EQUIPMENTThe Platform can be levelled by turning the adjustable Seismic Load Cell™. For asymmetric components such as a valve (tube) amplifier with the transformers at the rear, different load capability Seismic Load Cells™ can be used to balance the load.Platform working height is approximately 40mm (1.5”). THIS LISTING IS FOR A SIZE 1 PLATFORM - PLEASE SEND A MESSAGE FOR A PRICE IF ANOTHER SIZE IS REQUIRED.The Seismic Isolation Platform is available in three standard sizes:Size 1 43x30cm (17×12”)Size 2 48x35cm (19×14”)Size 3 52x40cm (20.5×16”) It is important to specify the weight of your equipment when ordering. The singular Seismic Load Cell is available with seven different weight capacities, ranging progressively from 1kg up to 32kg. Virtually any weight of equipment can be isolated.The spring rates are as follows: Colour Code (A) ORANGE 1kg-10kg (B) YELLOW 10kg-20kg (C) GREEN 20kg-40kg (D) BLUE 40kg-80kg (E) SILVER 80kg-128kg (F) BROWN 128kg-200kg Please state on ordering which Load Cells are required so correct Platform is supplied. Alternatively, please advise of the dimensions and weight of the equipment that the platform is to be used with, thank you!The Platform is easily levelled by turning the adjustable Seismic Load Cell. For asymmetric units, such as a valve (tube) amplifier with the transformers at the rear, different load capability Seismic Load Cells can be used to balance the load.For out of balance loads where the centre of gravity of the component is not near the geometrical centre of the component, each support foot is screw adjustable in length to allow for this. If the degree of out of balance is too large, then it is suggested to use unequal springs or add an additional Load Cell for fine adjustments. The Importance of Vibration IsolationVibrations affect the reproduction of sound through hi-fi systems. Although many of these are small and may go largely unnoticed, vibrations have a negative impact on the quality of sound in virtually all hi-fi components.Turntables are highly sensitive to vibration, which raises the noise floor, degrading the sound not to mention stylus jump due to footfall.With silver-disc players, vibration affects the laser mechanism and the crystal oscillators introducing severe sound-degrading jitter.With tube or valve amplifiers vibration rattles the microphonic electrodes, especially the grids.Transistor amplifiers have microphonic components, including capacitors and connecting wires which move relative to one and another generating rogue voltages. All of these mechanisms will degrade the delicate audio signal.Computers, streamers and DACs are highly susceptible to mechanical noise as they all contain vibration sensitive crystal oscillators.Rigidly spike or cone mounted speakers transmit energy into the floor radiating vibration throughout the room and ultimately, through your rack and into your equipment. This seriously degrades performance as described above. Spike and cone mounted speakers cause the whole room structure to vibrate, often resulting in an unrealistic boomy bass whilst masking subtle detail. Further, this unwanted structural vibration can seriously irritate your neighbours.The Seismic Isolation Pod is a Seismic Load Cell™ with a circular foot attached to the lower end cap for stability. The length may be adjusted by turning the top end cap, which allows easy levelling of audio equipment placed on a set of Pods. There is a soft felt protective piece on the top and bottom faces of the end caps to allow for easy positioning and to prevent scratching.The secret is to fully float your whole Hi Fi System independently from the speakers and the floor. Townshend have devised a complete solution that to allow this to be done in an optimum way.Seismic Load Cell™The key component is the Townshend Seismic Load Cell™. The Seismic Load Cell™ consists of a high quality alloy steel compression spring surrounded by a flexible synthetic rubber jacket with two end plates. Screw threads in each plate facilitate height adjustment and provide attachment points. A movement-sensitive, air-resistance damper rapidly dissipates low frequency oscillation caused by disturbing the suspended equipment. Seismic Load Cells™ are very ‘soft’ and allow free movement in all three dimensions; up/down, left/right and back/forth. This unique solution blocks all deleterious vibration from 3Hz upwards and from all directions. As the frequency increases, the isolation gets progressively greater, ensuring that virtually no vibration can pass from and to the suspended equipment. As each hi-fi component is isolated, the sound progressively improves.

Townshend Seismic Sink from Townsend Audio in 17 x 14 size. Perfect for just about any component. Model 257D - shown with the Roksan Attessa DP2 CD player The seismic sink has an internal inflatable cushion and it really does an incredible job in preventing vibration - with the seismic sink you can rap the shelf very hard and a record doesnt jump or skip it does a truly amazing job at isolating vibration. I have included the hand pump to set the pressure just right. There is also an optional power supply that you can purchase from Townshend which plugs into the rear to give a visual observation of the pliancy of the sink - in other words when the red light starts to blink you pump in a little more air.
