Please select the correct pods for your chosen equipment by using the colour guide below and the drop down menu next to the price. The weights quoted are for 1 pod, as an example if you chosen equipment weighs 8kg and you want to use 3 pods then choose ORANGE, if your equipment weighs 20kg and you want to use four pods choose YELLOW
0.5kg – 1kg GOLD | 1kg – 2kg RED | 2kg – 4kg ORANGE | 4kg – 8kg YELLOW | 8kg – 16kg GREEN | 16kg – 32kg BLUE | 32kg – 64kg SILVER
Positioned under any piece of equipment, four Seismic Isolation Pods will dramatically improve the sound by breaking the acoustic connection between the audio system and structural vibrations in the room.
The singular Seismic Isolation Pod is available with seven different weight capacities, ranging progressively from 1kg up to 64kg. Depending on the weight of the device they can be used in sets of four, eight or more to isolate any piece of equipment, of any weight from any vibration.
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 spring rates are as follows:
| Spring | Min weight | Max weight | Colour Code |
| AAA | 0.5kg (1lb) | 1kg (2lb) | Brown |
| AA | 1kg (2lb) | 2kg (4lb) | Red |
| A | 2kg (4lb) | 4kg (9lb) | Orange |
| B | 4kg (9lb) | 8kg (17lB) | Yellow |
| C | 8kg (17lb) | 16kg (35lb) | Green |
| D | 16kg (35lb) | 32kg (70lb) | Blue |
| E | 32kg (70lb) | 64kg (140lb) | Silver |
The maximum load when using four E springs is 256kg (560lb). For loads above this, eight or more load cells may be required.
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.
For example, a with valve amplifier with the transformers at the rear, then use two “B” springs at the front and two “C” springs at the rear.
The simplest implementation is to utilise the Seismic Pods in sets of four. It is possible to utilise three pods, but this arrangement is difficult to level satisfactorily and the effect of the weight of the cabling may also complicate matters.
It is advisable to dress the cables such that they do not act as a mechanical short circuit negating the effect of the Seismic Isolation. Common sense and a little experimentation is advised. Try to avoid very heavy and stiff cables.
If it is difficult to position the individual Pods, it is advised to employ the Seismic Sink Platform. The advantage here is that the equipment may be re-positioned without upsetting the level. Also, for very heavy equipment, it is very difficult to position the Pods whilst holding up the equipment single handed.

Audio Origami – AMPodium Amplifier Isolation Platform
The AMPodium by Audio Origami is a high-end isolation platform for amplifiers that protects the signal from ground-based resonance
Crafted from thick, rigid perspex and combined with highly effective isolation pillars, the AMPodium stops harmful vibrations degrading the audio signal.
Designed for large amplifiers and mono-blocks. the AMPodium provides a safe and stable platform that promotes cooling as well as excellent isolation.
Audio Origami – isoGlobes
Audio Origami isoGlobes provide excellent audio isolation at an affordable price.
Designed to sit underneath hi-fi electronics or plinths, the clever construction of the isoGlobes absorbs a high level of vibration that otherwise could enter your hi-fi equipment and alter playback.
Audio Origami isoGlobes are constructed from varying density 3D printed PLA+ caps, high-quality rubber o-rings and dense steel balls. The combination of these materials absorbs vibrations and decouples your components from your hi-fi rack.
Audio Origami – IsoPodium
The perfect isolation platform for audiophiles with high-performing source components.
Crafted from thick, rigid perspex and Audio Origami’s outstanding isoPods isolation feet, the isoPodium reduces vibrations reaching your turntable, DAC or CD Player.
The isoPodium looks superb, frees your source component from audible resonances and enhances your musical enjoyment by delivering purer playback.
Audio Origami – isoPods
Audio Origami isoPods are designed to provide a level of isolation previously unmatched in the high-end audio industry.
One of the most overlooked components of hi-fi equipment is the feet that each unit sits on. Most manufacturers glue a thin aluminium layer to a hard shore rubber base and screw them into the unit’s base. This solution is generally ineffective at stopping vibrations from leaking into the component.
Audio Origami isoPods are constructed from a blend of varying density 3D printed honeycomb premium-grade rubber layers and mild steel encapsulated in a sturdy housing and provide a level of isolation previously unachievable in the audio industry.
Audio Origami – SpikePods
The ultimate feet upgrade for Michell Gyro SE and Orbe SE turntable owners.
Audio Origami’s SpikePods for Michell turntables provide better isolation and noticeably enhanced playback on all Gyro SE and Orbe SE decks.
Made from combining Ailsa Craig granite (the densest granite ever discovered) with a specialised 3D honeycomb-printed spike, the SpikePods stop more vibrations than any other foot solution currently available for Michell turntables.
The package includes a solid granite motor plinth coupled to rubber grip feet, which reduces vibration reaching the motor and decreases wow and flutter considerably.
