Rollerblock Isolation Modules Option

Rollerblock Isolation Modules  $770.00 per set of 4, including Grade 10 Tungsten Carbide balls in NATURAL finish (not black or polished). Add $165. (per set of 4) for Black Anodized finish or Silver (polished).

The above drawing below shows one set of RMK (Rollerblock Module Kit), but more can be added. Two sets would give Compound Isolation to the top level, which is ideal for sensitive components such as analog turntables. This system is markedly superior to anything at up to twice its price or more.

As shown, the 4 Level Ultra RMK with the one set just below the top level provides Rollerblock Isolation to the top level. It’s possible to place the RMK at the bottom, which would provide Rollerblock isolation to the top three levels. This system is shown as it isolates the top level from the rest, but either approach could be used. The best configuration would be adding another set at the bottom, which gives the 2 center shelves single level isolation and Compound (double) isolation to the top level.

Customer Reviews

"I finally completed installation of the rack and have installed the other products I purchased... With the weight of the rack itself and the other components, that rack isn't going to walk anywhere. It is highly solid and rigid...

"After reconnecting all the components, I was curious to find if I could hear any sound improvement beyond the installation of my Super Plus Platforms. The improvement was anything but subtle. The bass is quicker and deeper. Much deeper and larger sound stage. Everything sounds better, even the midrange. I played Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man" and the timbre and transient quality of the tympani and the bass drum is awesome.

"I also played a bass singer singing "Old Man River" on a DVD of a San Francisco Opera performance of "Show Boat." His voice is much more open and in the presence. So that tells me I made a good decision to put the Segue under the center channel speaker.

"I don't know which of the many devices I installed had the biggest impact on the improvement, so I guess they all added some amount to the cumulative effect. Even the tuner sounds great.

"The Foundation Rack is much more solid... On my former rack, I could still tap the post with my hand and see the components on the Rollerblocks move around. So even though I filled the tubing posts with filler, there was still some flexing in the stand. With the Foundation Rack there is no movement. So when I tap the side of the posts with my hand, there is no movement on the components above the Rollerblocks. I would think that, in addition to the technology in the shelving, the rigidity of the posts also contributes to the better sound.

"It appears that everything I have purchased from you has contributed to the anti-vibration control, and I couldn't be more happy with how fantastic my systems sounds now. I also did one more thing. I threw away all of my Auralex platforms. They may help to keep the bass from going to the floor, but I have decided they are more of a detriment to my sound quality than they are a benefit.

"Thanks for taking the time to help me understand the physics and theory behind how your devices work."
