Review on 14 Piece Black Adhesive Bumper Feet - USA πŸ”ˆ Made Rubber Isolation Pads for Speakers, Subwoofers, Audio Equipment and more by Jun Alves

Revainrating 5 out of 5

These 17.8 x 9.6 mm [0.70 " (diameter) x 0.38 " (height)] adhesive feet are great!

I get quite a lot of "Hi-End-Audio" catalogs because I subscribe to several "High-End-Audio" magazines (just for fun; I buy it actually not overpriced - and, currently poor construction quality - no more sound hardware). I have several devices (a JVC CD player and a Pioneer DVD player) that tend to slide on my stand when I use their front panel controls. (Plus, the Pioneer sits right above the Oppo UDP-203 Blu-ray player, and the Pioneer feet don't give the Oppo any room to "breathe".) It was enough to annoy me, and I wanted rubber or similar insulating pads. Firstly, to isolate them from the stand (to avoid vibration) and to keep them from slipping. I went through my two "High Quality Audio" catalogs and here they are: The lowest price I could find was isolation pads for only $14.99. Unfortunately it was only for FOUR (4) pads. And believe it or not, there were others that sold for up to $800.00 (!) for four pads. MADE IN THE USA - Rubber Isolation Pads for Speakers, Subwoofers, Home Theater, Electronics, Audio - Pack of 14 by GorillaGrit that sell for only $7.97 - and that's FOURTEEN (14) of them. I applied a total of eight pads (two devices) and left them on overnight. Glue "set" and pads are constantly glued when fucking. In any case, you will have to make a lot of effort to remove them. The hardware no longer slips, and although I can't say if they actually minimize vibration from the stand (never heard of them before putting these pads on). They definitely can't do any harm. Also, there is now space between Pioneer's DVD player and Oppo's Blu-ray player. So I am 100% satisfied with these insulating pads. I have a "small" complaint: there are fourteen pads included in the kit. This is an odd number considering most items have four legs. Why didn't they package them with twelve or sixteen pads? It would be in groups of four, which would make more sense to me. But as I said, this is a very "minor" complaint and I can tell you, if you're looking for items like this, I don't think you can go wrong with this one. And they are made in the USA! How about! I give them the BEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION. Thank you for reading this and listening to my opinion. Lawrence H. Balk
