Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Bars – Elevate Your Sound, Silence the Floor
Discover the ultimate upgrade for your audio system with the Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Bars for Speakers and Subwoofers (starting at £750 per pair). Handcrafted in the UK, these innovative isolation bars sever the acoustic connection between your speakers and the floor, banishing unwanted vibrations that muddy your sound and disrupt your listening space. Whether you’re running floor-standing towers, stand-mounted monitors, or thunderous subwoofers, the Seismic Isolation Bars deliver a transformative clarity that lets your music breathe freely—priced for the serious audiophile who demands perfection.
Break the Acoustic Chain
Speakers don’t just project sound into the air—they transmit vibrations through the floor, creating a feedback loop that blurs bass, smears mids, and sends disturbances rippling through your home. The Seismic Isolation Bars put an end to this chaos. Designed to be used in pairs under any speaker type, each bar features a robust steel cross-piece with raised ends, supporting two Seismic Load Cells™. These highly compliant cells effectively “float” your speakers in the room, isolating them from floor-borne vibrations above 3Hz in all directions—up/down, left/right, and back/forth. The result? A cleaner, more focused soundstage that reveals every nuance of your music, untainted by structural interference.
Engineered for Sonic Freedom
The magic of the Seismic Isolation Bars lies in their Seismic Load Cells™, a Townshend innovation that combines extreme compliance with precision engineering. Suspended on these cells, your speakers become decoupled from the floor’s influence, allowing their drivers to move freely without the damping effect of surface integration. Bass tightens, mids gain transparency, and highs shimmer with detail—your system will sound more alive, more dynamic, and truer to the recording. Plus, by preventing vibration transmission downward, these bars double as a neighbor-friendly solution, keeping your audio bliss contained to your listening space.
Tailored to Your Setup
Versatility is key with the Seismic Isolation Bars, available in five weight-range capacities to suit any speaker or subwoofer:
-
Less than 5kg: Perfect for lightweight stand-mounts.
-
Up to 13.2kg: Ideal for medium-sized speakers (using four “B” Load Cells).
-
Up to 52.4kg: Great for larger floor-standers or subs (using four “C” Load Cells).
-
Up to 75kg+: Handles hefty systems with ease (using higher-capacity cells).
Each pair is meticulously tuned to support loads from featherweight monitors to massive subwoofers. For setups exceeding 30kg—or taller equipment over 1m with a high center of gravity—we recommend switching to Seismic Podiums for single-handed loads up to 75kg, ensuring stability and ease of use. When weights overlap in the capacity chart, opt for the stronger Load Cell for hassle-free setup and balanced performance—e.g., four “C” Load Cells support up to 52.4kg, including any base plate.
Simple Setup, Lasting Impact
Installation is straightforward: place a pair of Seismic Bars under your speaker or subwoofer, adjust for level, and let the Load Cells do the rest. Crafted from high-strength steel and finished with Townshend’s signature attention to detail, these bars are built to last, backed by a 5-year warranty. The subtle lift—just enough to decouple—won’t alter your room’s aesthetics, but the sonic improvement will be unmistakable. Audiophiles report “night-and-day” differences: tighter basslines, a wider soundstage, and a quieter background that lets every instrument shine.
