Chord Silent Mount SM5
Free UK Delivery
Prestigious and critically acclaimed premium cable manufacturer, The Chord Company, have expanded their catalogue even further, now offering specialised spike-shoes with expressly designed anti-resonant properties.
Since the integration of spikes to the bottom of racks, tables, speakers and speaker stands,the common issue of ensuring that the unit is solid and level to the ground, without damaging the floor inn the process. There have been a few attempts to rectify this problem, including low-budget methods of using coins to keep the spike from the floor, as well as purpose-made hifi floor protectors.
Chord's new Silent Mount Floor Protectors take this issue and resolve it in a unique and productive way. The Silent Mount Floor Protectors are compatible with smaller aluminium spike mounts, right up to the top range Titanium stand spike mounts.
While the units look simple in appearance, their combination of premium materials, finely engineered shape, and genius construction are evidence of the rigorous and complex level of research conducted in order to create such a sonically advanced article.
All Silent Mount models include a set of self-adhesive, thin, felt pads. This means than when using the Silent Mounts on a non-carpeted floor, the floor is not only protected from any possible scuffing - but the felt pads have also been chosen and designed to minimise any unwanted vibration or resonance, resulting in a drastically enhanced sound quality. If using the Silent Mount on a carpeted floor, then you don't need to use the felt pads.
4 x 50mm stainless steel spike mounts for racks/loudspeakers. Hand crafted in Japan.
“Not only did these improve every element of the sound, they also made it much easier to properly level my speakers and that improved things still further.”
There are lots of reasons for using Silent Mount isolation devices. First of all there is the undeniable and obvious improvement in sound quality. We’ve used these beneath floor standing speakers, beneath speaker stands and beneath racks as well. In every case the audible improvements are obvious and consistent.
SM5X stainless steel Silent Mounts have been designed to improve the contact between the spikes fitted to equipment and your floor. No matter how hard your floor is the pressure that the tip of each spike places on it is extremely high. The SM5X silent mount will make it far easier to stabilise your equipment/rack and will improve the high-speed energy transfer.
All Silent Mounts are supplied with a set of self adhesive thin felt pads. If the rack is sited on anything other than a carpeted floor the felt pads should be fitted to the base of each Silent Mount. The felt pad has been specifically chosen to minimise any vibration between the Silent Mount and the floor and will ensure that you get the best performance. If the silent Mount is being used on a carpeted floor the felt pads should not be fitted.
SM5 stainless steel Silent Mounts will support up to 50 Kilos in weight.
Each pack contains 4 Silent Mounts.
