IsoAcoustics Orea Bordeaux

Description

The IsoAcoustics Orea Bordeaux provides extraordinary levels of isolation for heavier audiophile products.

Bordeaux: Eliminates parasitic vibrations, and providing greater sound clarity and focus. The Bordeauxs are ideal for heavier components including monoblocks, Speakers, Power Conditioners, and Turntables. Made of machined stainless steel, the Bordeauxs have a low-profile design to minimize any increase in height.

Each Bordeaux will hold up to 32lbs (14.5kg) and have a coloured ring on the bottom isolator that denotes the model and weight capacity. The OREA series are packaged individually to allow greater flexibility when determining the number of units to use. We recommend a minimum of 3 units under each component, depending on weight.

The upper flange of the OREA’s are designed to provide a suction cup like effect and adhere to the underside of the component, while the lower flange adheres to the supporting surface. All the energy is managed within the core of the OREA’s, which are tuned to work within specific weight ranges. This results in greater sound clarity and a more open soundstage providing authentic, three-dimensional sound.

The existing feet on an audio component may connect well and fit nicely around the perimeter of the Indigo. Alternatively, you may get better performance by either removing the feet entirely or placing the Indigo around the existing feet to have them connect directly to the chassis or base of the component.

Weight Capacity

The weight capacity for a single OREA Bordeaux isolator is 32 pounds (14.5 KG). The OREA’s are designed to be used in multiples to match the weight of the component or speaker. The total weight capacity is calculated as follows:

Total Weight Capacity = [Weight cap. per isolator] x [Qty of Isolators]

The total weight capacity for the OREA Bordeaux is summarized in the table below:

It is common to use 3 or 4 OREA isolators for each component or speaker, but keep in mind that it is most important to stay within the weight capacity of the OREA isolator.

The weight distribution of the component can also be taken into account. If for example the component is heaviest at the back, then it is common to use 3 isolators with 2 positioned at the back corners and 1 positioned front/center.

The weight capacity of the OREA isolators are based on the performance curves which are illustrated in the char below:
