Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Your loudspeakers are the most critical components you use to verify the quality of your work. No matter how good your mixer, mics, preamps, cables, and other pieces of gear that you've invested in, you're not truly hearing what your recordings sound like until you isolate your monitors from their environment.

This is where the Auralex MoPADs come in. MoPAD Monitor Isolation Pads provide sonic isolation between your monitors and whatever your monitors are resting on, INSTANTLY improving the accuracy of your entire monitoring system.

MoPADs are affordable, easy to implement and really effective at decoupling your monitors from your room and all its contents. You've gotta get some! Until you do, you'll never know what your recordings really sound like.

Dimensions: 12" long x 4" wide; Weight Limitations: 100lbs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Did wonders for bass response, November 30, 2009
This review is from: Auralex MOPAD Monitor Isolation Pads, Charcoal, 1 pair (Electronics)
This is a quick review, but I thought I'd throw my two cents in.

I bought these pads with the intention of tightening up the bass response of my monitors. The difference was immediately noticeable. I first tested them on my glass desk just to get an idea of how much isolation was really taking place in a worst case scenario. I'll be honest, in my opinion the glass desk was still pretty unbearable.

Fortunately, I have speaker stands, and when used with the auralex pads, the bass sounded much more accurate with distinct separation. In addition, the tightening of the bass seemed to clean up the overall response of the monitors, effectively creating a sharper listening experience.

Initially, I was hesitant to spend roughly forty bucks on foam pads. After checking out some reassuring reviews and realizing that making my own would require more effort and research than I was willing to give, I decided to take the small risk. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase.

Also, the ability of the pads to isolate while tilting your monitors upwards or downwards is a welcome benefit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it's supposed to., August 15, 2008

This review is from: Auralex MOPAD Monitor Isolation Pads, Charcoal, 1 pair (Electronics)
My desk used to act as a low-frequency resonator, tainting my mixes and attracting dangerous spirits. Now it's like my monitors are floating above my desk. I no longer hear my desk playing my music, even with my ear to the surface!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not for studio, April 17, 2009
This review is from: Auralex MOPAD Monitor Isolation Pads, Charcoal, 1 pair (Electronics)
The Pads help: but they don't isolate. You still have a lot of bass going straight into the desk. I have 2 KRK Rokit 5s on the pads and have my Mackie 824's really isolated. I bought them pads at guitar-center in Boston, not at amazon and I paid USD 30.--.
The pads are nice, but way below studio quality.
