Audio Reproduction | Audiophile & Turntable Vibration Isolation
Platforms, Tables, Isolators, Equipment & Custom Systems
Audiophiles should like the sound of this:
The industry's highest performing vibration isolation
system is now available in a cost-effective, low-height
platform that even satisfies the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor).
The BM-8
Series vibration isolation platform offers true ½-Hz
isolation performance vertical and 1.5 Hz horizontal and
is easy to use. No air or electric power is required,
there is no maintenance and nothing to wear out. It
is 18”Wx20”Dx4.6”H and is available with
nominal load capacities from 25 to 250 lbs. It is
ideal for turntables, CD transports and other audio components,
with prices starting at $2,640. Custom variations
of the low-height BM-8 can be designed for larger and heavier
components.
For more cost-conscious audiophiles, with 2.5 Hz performance
vertical and 1.5 Hz horizontal, the BM-6 Series platform
offers better vibration isolation performance than any other
passive audio isolation system on the market except the
Minus K 0.5-Hz systems. It is the same size as the
BM-8 with the 25, 50 and 100 lb nominal load capacities.
Prices for the three models are $1,980, $2,035 and $2,090.
Our BM-1 Series platform offers Minus K's signature 0.5 Hz
performance, both vertical and horizontal, and is available
for larger and much heavier audio components.
