Custom Design's philosophy is to achieve business success through product design, customer service and innovation, which are integral to the DNA of Custom Design. The willingness to embrace new materials, new technology and new philosophy's is part of Custom Design's culture and the main reason for our continued success in HiFi Furniture design and manufacturing over the past 35 years.
In Japan they use the word Kaizen, a continual approach to improvement. Custom Design's philosophy for the last 35 years has been to create, challenge and innovate when possible. The Quadraphonic HiFi 3 Isolation Platform is a direct result of such actions. A wealth of experience in HiFi Furniture manufacturing and an accumulation of constrained layer dampening knowledge provided Custom Design with a unique HiFi Isolation Furniture strategy.
The Turntable Isolation Platform Quadraphonic 2 is built upon the foundation of the total isolation principle of Inter Specific Isolation and Intra Specific Isolation. This design includes a double layer of constrained layer dampening, Acoustic Steel Isolation and Acoustic Aluminium Isolation. Resulting in a balanced isolation through resonance noise vibration being converted in a twin constrained layer dampening system to negligible heat. The laws of conversation of energy state energy cannot be created or destroyed, only change of form. The same patented polymer constrained layer dampening system creates Inter Specific competition between the 2 different materials at different frequencies. The balanced interaction of the materials helping to provide total isolation solutions. Intra Specific competition is the completion of resonance absorption between the same material. The efficiency of energy conservation increased further by the use of varying thickness, allowing the patent polymer to operate at maximum performance for each materials resonance frequency.
The Turntable Isolation Platform Quadraphonic 2 design includes the world renowned Acoustic Steel and the Acoustic Aluminium manufactured in a ground breaking way to create Inter Specific Isolation and Intra Specific isolation. A direct result of the pioneering Quadraphonic iRAP with a balanced philosophy and total Isolation success.
The Acoustic Steel Base Isolation platforms are manufactured from 2 different thicknesses of CR4 mild steel. The varying thickness of each layer competes to convert the resonance noise energy of different frequencies. Each thickness of the CR4 mild steel constrained layer system engages with the patented polymer to eliminate unwanted frequencies to negligible heat. This Intra Specific Isolation reaction strikes a balance between the constrained layer dampening system to provide the best Isolation conversation rate possible.
The Acoustic Aluminium Top iRAP shelves are also manufactured from 2 different thicknesses of aluminium. As the different thickness aluminium sheets compete to convert the resonance noise vibration energy to negligible heat, a completely different range of resonance noise vibrations and frequencies are converted. The Intra Specific Isolation system provides an offset and balanced isolation solution to the Intra Specific Isolation of the Acoustic Steel. Another layer of Intra Specific Isolation which eliminates completely different frequencies for the Quadraphonic HiFi 3 Isolation Platform.
The Inter Specific Isolation is created by the use 2 different types of material, the Acoustic Steel offering a high mass with density and the Acoustic Aluminium offering a lighter mass, rigid platform results in a well balanced elimination of resonance noise vibration throughout the design structure of the Quadraphonic 2 Turntable Isolation Platform. Through research and development this formation has proven to be the most efficient ratio for converting resonance energy with the viscoelastic properties available.
The Acoustic Steel and Acoustic Aluminium platforms are isolated from each other using 10mm solid steel bearings in either a tri point isolation solution or the more conventional 4 point isolation, the choice is for the customer to choose.
The 4 corner satellite supports are manufactured from 25mm ERW BS EN 10305-3 steel tubes, available in Black, Polished Chrome or Brushed Chrome finish. Combined with the high mass, hand made and hand finished 6mm Acoustic Steel Isolation Platform and the Acoustic Aluminium iRAP shelves results in a discrete, acoustically inert hifi isolation stand, with just the correct amount of mechanical feedback to provide the dynamic range with headroom. The acoustic improvements are substantial compared with traditional manufacturing methods and materials.
The Turntable Isolation Platform Quadraphonic 2 is a unique, pioneering, acoustically inert turntable isolation platform for our customers who demand and require a more exciting, dynamic performance from their hifi Isolation furniture.
