Seismic Podium
'Float' throughout the audio waveband-
The Townshend Seismic Podium revolutionizes how you enjoy your music, eliminating disruptive vibrations to let your speakers perform at their best. By isolating your loudspeakers from unwanted resonances, the podium opens up a richer, deeper soundstage with unmatched clarity and detail. Transform your listening experience and hear your favourite tracks with newfound precision and depth.
Sizing up
The weight of your speakers is crucial in determining the right load cells for perfect isolation within the audio waveband. Our carefully calibrated Loadcells ensure the ideal spring-mass load, allowing your speakers to “float” and achieve comprehensive isolation from external vibrations. Once this balance is achieved, you’ll select a platform that fits your speakers as shown in the diagram. If there is a slight overhang at the front or back, this may be acceptable. For speakers that don’t fit any standard platforms, we offer a bespoke service to create a custom stand that perfectly suits your setup.

Posted on David STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The analogy to my recent purchase of Townshend Seismic Podiums (Podia?) for my Wilson speakers relates to something that happened when I was in a pub in London with a colleague many years ago. We ordered a few Guinesses. I took mine, said Cheers and started drinking. My colleague waited a few minutes until the foam had died down, looked at the glass that was now about 85% full and said to the bartender "And the rest of it?" At which point his glass was topped off. The technical stuff is on their website, but I can tell you some of what I'm experiencing with the Seismic Podium 4's on my tube system. 1. First, a tiny rumble that would come on with the system, but before the music began was now gone. My guess is that some vibratory feedback between the speakers and system had been eliminated by the Seismic Podiums. I had always blamed my amp's tubes so I guess I owe them an apology. 2. As many others have pointed out in other places, there seems to be a touch less bass, but my impression is that that's just whatever smearing was going on being removed. The bass remains full, quick and detailed. 3. Mids - top end cleaner. Some top end smearing at high volumes was the reason I looked into speaker isolation in the first place and these did the trick in cleaning it up. If a recording is sibilant you'll still hear that. Well recorded music sounds better with some detail and nuance that was lacking in my case before - especially on more complex symphonic recordings and at higher volumes. I don't want to give the impression that the differences are only for loud music. I'm finding the music fuller and more enjoyable at low volumes as well. FWIW the other reason I bought these was that I didn't want to put spikes through a nice rug or damage my floor and I don't personally love dealing with little metal disks under 200+ lb speakers. Also, I sometimes like to shift the speakers around and that's difficult for me with spikes. Solved by putting some sliders under the feet of the Seismic Podiums. I like the flexibility to be able to put the Podiums on wood/carpet/cement... In terms of setup, it was pretty easy. I really like the leveling methodology which Townshend makes easy by just rotating the footer tops. (Counterclockwise to raise / Clockwise to lower). I will warn you that the first few hours listening are a little disorienting as you suddenly hear more everything in your music. I noticed better imaging and detail in particular. I think the soundstage is a bit deeper / wider but I have no plans to A-B that to confirm at this point. Your mileage may vary. Finally, the customer service was A+. John answered my many questions quickly, politely and helpfully. You tell him what speakers you have and he recommends which Podiums you need (1-5) and puts the right springs on before shipping. They were shipped quickly and arrived in perfect shape. So overall, my takeaway is that if you want the rest of it, either wait around in a pub in London or just get these things for your speakers.Posted on john hannantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. World leading products and the best customer service I have experienced in 30 years of buying High End Audio equipment. After sales care is also the very best I have experienced. Very highly recommended products and customer relations I will definitely buy from Townshend family again!Posted on britishcomposersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Max Townshend's product designs are nothing short of remarkable and exemplary industry-defining achievements that set the bar. I use the Allegri control unit, the Fractal and Isolda analogue and digital interconnects and on a new loudspeaker system soon to be launched, the isolation pods. Every product makes a transformative improvement to sound quality and does so without recourse toward the ridiculous in pricing. I pray Max's legacy will continue, for I doubt there will ever be anything to match, let alone better what he has achieved.Posted on Derek AbrahamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bought a Townshend Rock7 turntable several years ago. A fabulous sounding record player. Nothing I have previously owned or heard comes close.I have owned and heard some super decks. The Rock7 is at the top of the pile.Posted on Egon RosenbergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great products, seismic podiums do give your speakers a big upgrade. I give 5 out of 5 stars because they deliver what they promise, highly recommended +++ kind regards to John from Egon

At the heart of our innovation is the Townshend Seismic Isolation Podium, a breakthrough in vibration control that works from an impressive 3Hz by floating the equipment throughout the audio wave band. Unlike conventional rigid couplers that begin to isolate from around 14Hz, our Seismic Isolation system provides a more natural, less analytical sound, allowing you to enjoy music as it was meant to be heard.
Description
Since the late 1940s, when the term “hi fi” was first applied to high-quality (high fidelity) sound reproduction systems, it has been conventionally accepted that the range of human hearing has an upper limit of about 15 to 20 kHz.
The signal used to measure this response is an artificially‐generated sine wave. However, modern research and long term experience working with High Fidelity systems now question this firmly held belief. Harmonically rich, highly transient, real‐life sounds extend well beyond 20 kHz; for example, the muted trumpet has a frequency response extending to beyond 100 kHz.
