NEW STACK AUDIO AUVA EQ AND AUVA 50 ISOLATORS LAUNCHED
British HiFi brand Stack Audio has announced the next products in their expanding range of vibration-absorbing accessories, the AUVA 50 loudspeaker isolators and the all-new AUVA EQ system isolators.
The Stack Audio AUVA EQ and AUVA 50 Isolators join the AUVA 70 and 100 launched earlier this year.
STACK AUDIO AUVA EQ
The Stack Audio AUVA EQ is a system isolator that combines two vibration-absorbing technologies working in tandem for the “ultimate level of equipment isolation” says Theo Stack of Stack Audio. “AUVA is our Particle Impact Damping technology. CSA stands for Custom Silicone Absorber – a new purpose-designed deformable suspension that provides Compliant Damping. Removing vibrations reveals more detail and texture in music; the AUVA EQs have been developed to enable your HiFi system to perform at its very best”.
The rigid machined aluminium shell of the AUVA EQ is designed to sit underneath the piece of HiFi equipment in direct contact with the case. The silicone absorber sits on the HiFi shelf or rack. As such, the case of the HiFi equipment is directly coupled with the AUVA chamber of the EQ but de-coupled (or isolated) from the HiFi shelf via the CSA suspension.
STACK AUDIO AUVA EQ SPECS
- (D) 50mm (1.7 inches) (H) 28mm (1.10inches)

STACK AUDIO AUVA 50
Following reviews and positive feedback from customers for the AUVA 70 and 100 speaker isolators, Stack Audio set out to provide the AUVA quality and performance at a more accessible price point. This resulted in the AUVA 50s which are designed to do two things: hold your loudspeakers rigidly whilst simultaneously absorbing vibration.

Theo says: “Holding loudspeakers rigidly is critical to hearing spatial detail and the clarity and timing of musical notes. These are the essential elements that make focused listening a pleasure. The patent-pending technology within the AUVAs paired with their solid outer shell enables them to remove vibrations whilst maintaining structural rigidity”.
