Stillpoints ULTRA LPI

LP Isolator (LPI) – The LPI slips over the spindle of your turntable and rests on the label portion of the LP.

The LPI absorbs the micro vibrations that are present at the label area, and makes the reproduction clearer, cleaner, more delicate, more open, and lifelike. The LPI Short Spindle is compatible with many turntables. The LPI Long Spindle works with turntables that incorporate a longer than average spindle.

 

Damping: a decrease in the amplitude of an oscillation as a result of energy being drained from the system to overcome frictional or resistive forces.

Isolation: The act of isolating. The quality or condition of being isolated.

Isolate: to cause to be alone or apart

If you have a device that has direct contact from top to bottom, (12 o’clock to 6 o’clock) like single bearing devices, no matter what the materials used, it is damping — not isolating.

True isolation does not have a direct path between surfaces. Stillpoints patented technology stacks bearings such that there is no direct contact between the component and the surface upon which it rests.

Human hearing is generally considered to be 20Hz-20kHz. With electronics, Stillpoints’ technology effectively functions over 20kHz. Typical damping products operate below 20kHz; thus shifting tonality. Despite this tonal shift, Stillpoints can easily be used with damping products to great success.

The materials used in Stillpoints are ceramics and stainless steel. They will last many lifetimes. What other product, from any industry, has the same permanence?

After a very short break-in period, the Stillpoints filter performs without change or degradation.

Considering the amount of performance and pleasure derived from a Stillpoint over time they are a unique bargain.

Isolate Your LPs from the Negative Effects of Vibration with the Stillpoints Ultra LP Isolator: Award-Winning Record Weight Begets Dramatically More Lifelike, Coherent, Natural, and Focused Sound

The Stillpoints LP Isolator (LPI) (short spindle version) is a record weight that slips over the spindle of your turntable and rests on the label portion of your LP to absorb the micro-vibrations that interfere with stylus/record contact. Such dissipation of these vibrations makes the analog musical reproduction much clearer, cleaner, more delicate, more open, and more lifelike. Based on the technology that made the Stillpoints Cones and Stillpoints Ultras among the most effective isolation devices around, The Absolute Sound Editors’ Choice Award-winning LP Isolator delivers massive audible benefits. We encourage you to audition one for yourself with the security of our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

Short Spindle Dimensions:
Height: 0.93″ (23.62 mm)
Diameter: 2.97″ (75.44 mm)
Weight: 1.45 lbs (0.658 kg)

“The LPI applies Stillpoints technology to a record clamp, emulating the salutary sonic effects of vacuum hold-down on any turntable.”
The Absolute Sound, Editors’ Choice Award

«The LPI immediately imposes a sense of balanced calm on proceedings: the band step away from the speakers, the recording becomes a single, coherent entity, while the stereo perspective becomes much more natural, especially in terms of height. The drum kit solidifies into a single compact unit, rather than having elements scattered across the soundstage, the chiming guitars are both better separated and more insistent. But most telling of all is the drop in apparent volume; the music doesn’t seem so loud because so much hash and noise has been stripped away….»
