Universal isolation platform is intended mainly for the isolation of the source components such as turntables, CD players, DACs, streamers and tube and solid state pre-amplifiers, but it will improve the performance of integrated and power amplifiers as well.
Structure borne vibrations from surrounding environment affects virtually every piece of audio equipment, but its effects are most damaging to the performance of the source components such as turntables, CD players, tube equipment, etc., thus they should be prevented from entering the audio components as much as possible. Further, vibrations induced in the transformers, motors, bearings, spindles, etc., also affect the final performance, so it is advisable to direct them out of the equipment as soon as possible and quickly damp/absorb them by the stand/rack/shelf/platform on which the equipment is mounted on.
Both type of the described vibrations, those induced in the equipment itself and those coming from the surrounding environment reduce clarity of the reproduced sound, smear music details and distort frequency response.
In order to tackle both type of described vibrations same time, we designed a universal equipment platform in such way to damp the vibration induced in the equipment itself and in the same time to isolate the equipment from the vibrations coming from the surrounding environment.
Our experience from the turntable design and production taught us that any large plates being used to form the audio equipment case-enclosure inevitably radiate some unwanted vibrations, no matter how rigid and securely they are executed (mounted).
Thus the platform base plate is rigid design machined from solid 10mm thick aluminum, strategically drilled with the holes of different diameters and with triangular openings, where the dimensions, shape and plan of openings and holes follow the Fibonacci sequence and Golden Section ratio rules in order to damp all the equipment born vibrations evenly across the wide frequency range.
Sections where the equipment feet rests on the base plate are further damped employing the rubber-cork washers bonded to the base plate underneath in the areas of these sections. Finally, the platform base plate is of medium weight relative to its size, thus energy storage is optimal.
Vibrations coming from the surrounding environment are prevented from entering the platform base plate by the employment of the isolation cones-feet, which are in contact with the base plate only over the rubber-cork washers of different diameter, kind of a “soft” coupling. Cones are made of stainless steel and have a small silicone pucks on the bottom providing further isolation from the shelf/rack/stand on which the platform is rest on. Cones are height adjustable allowing easy leveling of the platform.

Our delivery charges are based on weight and are charged at royal mail rates. Once you have added an item into your basket the shipping charge should appear based on the weight of your order, initially the charge is shown from a UK resident but after you enter your personal details the shipping for your country will appear. We deliver to any country in the world, anywhere with a valid address, typical delivery times are between 3 and 7 days.
We will use the most appropriate carrier for your order, anything lost in transit will be replaced in a timely manner, all orders are sent using recognised postal carriers and couriers.
On heavy and bulky items the charges can be quite high so please enquire via e-mail or telephone us for an exact cost to avoid mis-understandings.
Delivery times are based on current workloads, we try to dispatch in stock orders within 3 days of receipt, if your order is urgent please add a note in the order comments box. Occasionally we may run out of stock of an item or if it is built to order (power supply’s, mains leads etc) it could take slightly longer to dispatch.
Shipping charges start at £1.95 for small items like plugs and connectors, heavy items cost more and need to be sent insured delivery so please consider that when the cost appears in your basket.
Any questions about postage or delivery please tel. 01484 540561 or send us an e-mail
All items on the site (except those made to order) can be returned under the consumer contracts regulations within 30 days. Please contact us prior to returning so we can discuss your requirements. If the item has been specially ordered (not specially made) we reserve the right to charge a nominal re-stocking fee. We expect any goods returned to be in new condition complete with original packaging otherwise we reserve the right to refuse a refund. Items classed as “tailor made” cannot be returned under the regulations although Brook Audio may accept the return under certain circumstances.
Please note if you order goods from Brook Audio and live outside the EU you may have to pay import duty/taxes on your purchase. We have no control over this charge and we do not pre-pay the charges for you. We do not declare a lower value to avoid customs charges so PLEASE DO NOT ASK US TO DO THIS.
We get asked 100’s of times every week for tracking numbers, these are usually a waste of time as they only tell you that the goods are progressing through the carriers system. Usually for items sent overseas the country you live in will determine how quickly your goods arrive, as an example the Spanish postal service is very very slow, the Russian customs clearance can take weeks as well as Brazil.
