Extremely expensive little tiny plastic gel tabs
5 Oct 2024
These tiny tabs are fit for purpose, I admit, but I needed a spacer to separate my loudspeakers from the Heybrook speaker stands that I have. These stands themselves have annoying bolt heads on the top that get in the way of the speaker sitting squarely on top of the stand. So, I needed a spacer to separate the stand from the speaker.

The Atacama pads are just about big enough to do that and apply easily with the backing's sticky surface. But come on, be honest. For what they are, they are extremely expensive, at basically £20. I think £2 would have been reasonable. Someone is laughing all the way to the bank.

Better than blu-tak!
9 Nov 2023
Verified Buyer
After a lifetime of (practically) glueing my speakers to my speaker stands with blu-tak, I have now discovered isolation gel pads. I like them a lot and will use them under all sorts of components from now on. Though I never really suffered from speaker-stand rattle previously (they are filled with sand), I like the gap that the gel pads create.

The only downside is you need to remember to pick up the stand, not the speaker, when moving things around. Having the speaker pop into my hand while doing this recently made me realise what a secure bond blu-tak had been creating all these years.

Does the job of isolating the speaker from the stand well. It improved the resonance of sound.

Perfect for what they are designed for
2 Sep 2022
Verified Buyer
I bought these for my B&W 606 S2 on B&W STAV24 S2 stands. They look nice and have a good grip. The speakers stay firm, and the sound is good too.

I'm happy with the purchase. Moreover, it is always a pleasure to buy at Future Shop. They are always there to help and advise when you are in doubt. They are very kind. Thank you.

Nice upgrade
9 Jan 2022
Verified Buyer
These gel pads are much bigger than the small gel pads that come with speaker stands for free. They add about 10mm extra height to the speakers from the base plate and do a better job dampening the bass vibration through the stands.

Does exactly what I wanted
24 Dec 2019
Verified Buyer
Does exactly what I wanted. Bought these for my Elac Navis arb-51 speakers. They stick well and are nice and small. They grip well and are certainly doing a good job so far. I can't really say what kind of sound differences they make as I installed them on the Elacs from new so no A&B testing.

Highly recommend Future Shop.

These are fantastic value and quality for an item
12 Sep 2017
Verified Buyer
These are fantastic value and quality for an item that can make so much difference to your system, I have these under my front A/V speakers and they have tightened the bass up superbly, what's not to like, plus the service from Futereshop is top class.
A very happy customer

I used blu-tack until now and i must say that this...
12 Sep 2017
Verified Buyer
I used blu-tack until now and i must say that this pads are much better solution for my Atacama nexus 6 stands. The sound is clearer and bass is more controlled on my Rega rx1 speakers. As if i lifted a veil.... I would recommend it to anybody using blu-tack on speaker stands to try this product.
