Loudspeaker manufacturer Magico has just released a range of equipment feet that are not recommended for use under its own loudspeakers!
Instead, Magico suggests that its new ‘QPods’ could improve the sound of other manufacturers’ loudspeakers. However, QPods are actually intended to maximise the performance of front-end hi-fi components, according to Irv Gross, of Magico. ‘Originally developed for internal R&D, the Magico QPods are being introduced to maximize front-end system performance,’ he told Australian Hi-Fi Magazine. ‘By employing a combination of extensional damping, constrained-layer damping, and vibrational isolation, the overall system Q factor was brought to ideal levels and, thus, the model and name were created. Of course, in so doing, controlling the transmission of resonances to all equipment in the testing and listening facilities became the next variable to isolate.’
The pods are CNC-turned and milled from hardened stainless-steel, oxygen-free copper, and hard black anodized aircraft-grade aluminium. These materials are used to create the constraining layers for the damping material which is alternately clamped between them to create a single traverse dissipating unit. Magico says that vibrational wave propagation through the floor, stands, and the equipment itself is converted into heat energy through shear deformation (side-to-side movement in each layer of the pod). ‘By adding a multi-levelled constraining layer mechanism to equipment standoffs, electrical and mechanical vibration-induced artefacts are acutely reduced, ultimately resulting in marked improvements to signal fidelity,’ said Gross. However Gross does not recommend using the QPods with Magico speakers. ‘The QPods are not designed to replace or augment the Magico Q loudspeaker feet,’ he said. ‘They may, however, be effective in decoupling other loudspeakers.’ Magico QPods will be available in sets of three pods or sets of four pods.

扬声器制造商Magico刚刚发布英尺范围内的设备是没有根据自己的使用扬声器推荐！
相反，Magico表明，其新的'QPods'可以提高其他厂家的扬声器的声音'。 然而，QPods实际上旨在最大限度地提高了元件性能的前端高保真音响，根据 欧文总值 ，对Magico。 ' 本来ð制定内部研发的Magico QPods现已引进最大化前端系统的性能， 他告诉澳大利亚的Hi - Fi杂志。 ' 通过采用分离组合伸展阻尼，约束层阻尼，振动，整个系统的Q值被带到理想水平，因此，模型和名称被创造了。 当然，在这样做，控制的共振传输到所有的测试设备中，并聆听设施就成了新的变量 隔离。 '
荚果有数控车削和铣削铝从硬化不锈钢，无氧铜和勤奋黑色阳极航空级。 这些材料是用于创建遍历消散单位的制约层交替的阻尼材料是夹在它们之间建立一个单一的。 Magico说，通过地板的振动波的传播，人行道和设备本身的能量转换成热能，通过剪切变形（边侧荚运动中的每个层）。 ' 加入一个多层次的制约机制，设备支架层，电气和机械振动引起的文物敏锐地减少，最终导致明显改善的信号保真度， '说毛。 但是总不建议使用Magico与扬声器QPods。 ' 的QPods不是用来取代或增加Magico Q喇叭脚， '他说。 ' 他们可能，但是，有其他有效的去耦 扬声器。 ' Magico QPods将在豆荚荚套三四个或套。
