Magico has developed a spiked footer solution for the A3 loudspeaker named the APOD8.  The APOD is based on the scientific design principles of Constrained Layer Damping (CLD) and provides a way to couple the A3 or S1 MkII loudspeaker to the floor while dissipating unwanted mechanical energy away from the enclosure.

Magico say: “Demonstrable results include increased dynamics, enhanced focus, greater resolution, and a closer representation of the original musical performance as it was intended during the recording process”.

The main structure of the APOD is formed from multiple machined aluminium sections which when assembled form a vertical stack. A solid pure copper substrate centre round is sandwiched by a top and bottom layer of machined aluminium that when compressed together facilitates the Constrained Layer Damping (CLD) function. An adjustable spiked footer threads into the APOD base and when locked into position provides solid coupling to the floor. SRP is $ 1,550 for a set of eight.
