Shown for the first time at Canada’s Toronto Audio Fest last weekend, the OREA Graphite is the newest addition to IsoAcoustics’ highly acclaimed OREA modular Hi-Fi component isolator line.
First introduced in early 2018, the OREA range started big and worked smaller. Initially two models were available ‘OREA Bordeaux’ and ‘OREA Indigo’ which could accommodate up to 14.5 and 7.2kg of weight respectively. IsoAcoustics’ patented design cleverly eliminates incidental upward vibrations from a component by isolating the unit from its underlying surface.
They offer fantastic isolation support and vibration control to a huge amount of equipment and applications at a price that is simply unheard of in this somewhat overpriced industry.

To operate at their best, OREAs respond well to a minimum pressure level equivalent to their weight threshold being exerted on their suction cups. To illustrate the OREA range’s optimum weight distribution properties we’ve borrowed IsoAcoustics’ handy Performance Curve graph below:
In light of their rising popularity and in order to accommodate as many different Hi-Fi products as possible, IsoAcoustics released the OREA Bronze in late 2018 supporting 3.6kg to cater for lighter components.
Now in 2019, as compact becomes ever more fashionably 'the new big,' the IsoAcoustics OREA Graphite is an even smaller isolator measuring at 40x40mm across its suction cup, and offering a 1.8kg weight threshold per unit.
For configurations of 3 isolators used in tandem beneath a component, this amounts to a 5.4kg maximum weight (or 7.2kg when using four).
