PYLE PSI15 Acoustic Sound Proofing Deadening Vibration Isolation Speaker Base, Charcoal Gray, 15.0" x 15.0" -inches

It's rare that I take the time to review a purchase; however, despite my cynicism at paying approximately £42.00 for a sound absorbing mat weighing less than a pound, this product has quite literally transformed how I enjoy movies and now allows me to receive the joy of a smoothly delivered bass track that doesn't affect the structure of my environment; all of which, makes this an academic choice for anybody looking for that exact solution.

It’s not often I write reviews (if at all), but I just had to with this.The isolation pad has improved my listening experience so much. The bass no longer feels like it just hits the carpet and is trapped there. The only way I can explain it is that the bass now feels a lot more ‘open’ and one with the music but not ‘lost’ if that makes any sense?I was extremely sceptical that this pad would do anything at all and that I’d end just up sending it back for a refund (especially with this room being quite small), but I was SO wrong.I primarily listen to heavy music (August Burns Red to be exact as I type out this review) and the low end is wayyy more punchy and focused now. Gunfire and explosions on games like Call of Duty and Battlefield sound much better now too.Some may say this is placebo effect, but I’ve had these speakers (Edifier S360DB 2.1) for quite a while now, so I was immediately able to tell the difference. There was no need for a side by side test of with and without the isolation pad.If it wasn’t already clear, I am super happy with this purchase and I’m glad I made the decision to order one.

Though they don't look anything special, and the cheap labels fell off,I'm very pleased with the sonic result, at a very affordable price

I changed from carpet to hard floors and my subwoofer acoustics changed markedly. Whilst different isn't necessarily wrong or bad, to my ear it just sounded a bit bloomey and overblown.I purchased one of these as part of a trial & error experiment see if I could dial the sound back in towards my preference. My sub has front firing driver with base mounted passive radiator diaphragm, and I have to say this plinth has given the subwoofer back its sound signature. It sounds tight, punchy and integrates well within the wider set up. Have turned the logo to the rear, but otherwise its a decent plinth.

My book shelf speakers are on a chest of drawers near my amplifier so I used to feel that the "sweat spot" was a bit high up. I now have them pointing down at the 10 degrees down configuration and the sound is better when I'm sitting .

Stopped my Subs bouncing round the room! Huge difference to the sound stage.
