Experience the Purity of Sound with IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board

In the realm of high-fidelity audio, every detail counts. The IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board is more than just an accessory; it's a critical component for audiophiles who understand that true sound clarity is achieved when external vibrations are silenced. Named after the mythic Greek island of tranquility, Delos, this isolation board promises to be the silent foundation upon which your turntable or audio components serenely rest.

The Essence of Isolation

The Delos Series is not just about isolation; it's about experiencing music in its purest form. By decoupling your turntable from any supporting surface, the Delos board eliminates structural vibrations and resonances that can taint the sound quality of your vinyl playback.

Patented IsoAcoustics Isolation Design: Integrating their acclaimed isolation technology, the Delos board significantly diminishes interference, allowing you to hear the music, not the medium.
Absorbs Vibrations: With either four or six isolators, it absorbs vibrations to prevent resonance and reflection, ensuring that the only waves reaching your ears are the ones intended.
Noise Reduction: It actively reduces noise, providing a clearer and more focused soundstage.

Uncompromising Craftsmanship

Crafted from solid Maple or Walnut, the Delos board is not only an auditory solution but a piece of craftsmanship that appeals to both the eyes and the ears. The Maple and Walnut options are more than aesthetic choices; they influence the tonal characteristics of your sound.

Maple: Known for its hardness and durability, it offers a detailed, transparent, and uncolored sound.
Walnut: Softer yet sturdy, it provides a warmer and richer tone.

Each piece is finished with a urethane-based satin finish, offering resistance to stains and most solvents, preserving the natural beauty and integrity of the wood.

Designed to Perform

The Delos Turntable Isolation Board isn't just about what it takes away, but also what it adds to your listening experience. Here's how it enhances the performance of your audio setup:

Enhanced Sound Quality: By reducing noise and improving reverb, it refines the audio quality, making each listening session a pure delight.
Improved Bass Resonance and Clarity: The nuanced improvement in bass resonance and clarity is unmistakable, providing a solid foundation for your music.
Precise Instrumental Placement: The enhanced imaging leads to precise instrumental placement, allowing for a more authentic and immersive musical experience.

Compatibility and Versatility

Designed to support a wide range of turntables and audio components, the Delos Series comes in various sizes and weight capacities, ensuring there's a perfect fit for your setup.

Sizes and Thicknesses: From 455 x 380mm up to 560 x 405mm, with thickness options of 45mm and 76mm, accommodating your space and aesthetic preferences.
Weight Capacity: Depending on size and thickness, the boards support weights from 24.9kg to 45.4kg, robust enough for most turntables and audio components.

Durability and Stability

The Delos board is built to last, employing laminated construction of solid wood pieces bonded with RF Cured Greenguard® Certified PVA adhesive. This not only ensures durability but also stability, so your audio components remain securely in place.

The IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board is not just trusted by audiophiles worldwide; it's also a recognized award winner, having received the STEREOPHYS Golden Ear Award in 2021.

Our Review

IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board Review

Turntables are precision instruments where every detail matters, and vibration isolation plays a crucial role in achieving sonic purity. The IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board is a product designed with this in mind, promising to mitigate the negative effects of external vibrations on audio performance.

Design and Build Quality

IsoAcoustics offers the Delos in both walnut and maple, catering to different aesthetic preferences and sound characteristics. The board is available in sizes from 455 x 380mm to 560 x 405mm, and in thicknesses of 45mm and 76mm to support a range of turntable sizes and weights. The construction boasts a laminated assembly of solid wood pieces, bonded with RF Cured Greenguard® Certified PVA adhesive, ensuring durability and resistance to common solvents. The satin finish not only adds an elegant touch but also serves as a protective layer against stains.

Isolation Technology and Performance

The Delos isolation board utilizes the same principles as the acclaimed GAIA Series isolators. These integrated isolators absorb vibrations and reduce resonance, aiming to provide a purer sound by eliminating interference that can blur the audio signal. Users can expect a noticeable improvement in soundstage focus and a reduction in noise, which together create a more immersive listening experience. The board's ability to enhance reverb and spatial representation in music brings a three-dimensional quality to audio that can be profoundly satisfying.

Sound Characteristics

The choice between maple and walnut finishes influences the board's impact on sound. Maple is known for a more detailed and transparent response, ideal for those seeking an uncolored sound, while walnut introduces a warmer tonal quality. Bass resonance and clarity are reportedly significant, with a more defined bass line and less muddiness. Imaging and instrumental placement are also enhanced, bringing a precise and layered listening experience.

Practical Considerations

IsoAcoustics has designed the Delos to be accommodating, but there are limitations in weight capacity, particularly for the largest turntables. Installation is straightforward, and the added height to the turntable setup can be both a practical and aesthetic benefit. The board's longevity is anticipated to be high given the quality of materials and construction.

Pros and Cons

The Delos board excels in its core function of reducing unwanted vibrations, improving overall sound quality, and offering a durable and attractive addition to one's audio setup. However, it does have limitations, including weight support and size compatibility for larger turntables. While some users have reported feedback issues, these seem to be isolated cases that might be resolved with additional tuning or accessories.

User Feedback

Feedback from users highlights the effectiveness of the IsoAcoustics Delos in enhancing the audio experience, with many praising its construction and performance. Nevertheless, some users have noted wood quality inconsistencies and finish imperfections, which can be a concern for a product in this price category. It's important for potential buyers to consider these experiences, although they do not seem to be widespread.

Comparisons with Competitors

When compared to similar isolation products, the Delos stands out for its use of natural wood and proprietary isolation technology. The price-to-performance ratio is competitive, though some high-end alternatives may offer incremental benefits in clarity and imaging. It's essential for consumers to weigh these differences against the Delos's price point and aesthetic appeal.

Final Thoughts

The IsoAcoustics Delos Turntable Isolation Board is a well-crafted solution for audio enthusiasts looking to minimize the impact of external vibrations on their turntable performance. It offers an effective way to enhance sound quality and is particularly suited for those who value both function and form in their audio equipment. While not without its limitations, the Delos provides a meaningful upgrade for discerning listeners and represents a solid investment in the pursuit of audio excellence.
