The Ultra Mini V2 is Stillpoints' entry-level isolation foot, with each one capable of supporting up to 22.5kg in weight, and they are designed for use with your components or bookshelf speakers (not recommended for floorstanding speakers. They are available in packs of 3 or 4, which means you can select the perfect option for your component depending on its weight distribution.
The standard Ultra Mini V2 consists of three primary elements: body, base, and filter. The narrow tapered Mini Body houses the V2 technology filter. The Mini Base allows for leveling when four are used under one component. The standard thread size is an 8/32” which will fit some equipment with out the Base. The Ultra Mini V2 is available with 1/4-20 male threads to be used in the Stillpoints Component Stand, ESS X and Rail Grids.
The technology filter used in the Ultra Mini is actually one of Stillpoints' circuit board standoffs. The disk-shaped Mini Base threads on to an 8-32 stud extending from the filter. There is a small amount of adjustment available for levelling by rotating the base on the stud. Each Ultra Mini can support 22.5kg / 50lbs. The Ultra Mini is not recommended for floor standing loudspeakers. The possibility of dropping one corner down with all the weight onto one Ultra Mini could damage the filter. Thus, Stillpoints underrate the capacity to 22.5kg / 50lbs. The Ultra Mini is still version one. With circuit board standoffs there is a need for exact heights; 1/2”, 5/8”, etc. to make the circuit board standoffs in Version II requires a total rework of the design.
