Auralex MOPAD Monitor Isolation Pads, Charcoal, 1 pair Review

The Pads help: but they don't isolate. You still have a lot of bass going straight into the desk. I have 2 KRK Rokit 5s on the pads and have my Mackie 824's really isolated. I bought them pads at guitar-center in Boston, not at amazon and I paid USD 30.--.
The pads are nice, but way below studio quality.

Your loudspeakers are the most critical components you use to verify the quality of your work. No matter how good your mixer, mics, preamps, cables, and other pieces of gear that you've invested in, you're not truly hearing what your recordings sound like until you isolate your monitors from their environment.This is where the Auralex MoPADs come in.

Auralex GRAMMA: Amp and Monitor Isolation Riser, Charcoal, Single Review

I've been playing bass for a classic rock cover band through an Ampeg 328. I love my amp. It's not a 400-watt monster, but it suits my needs since I'm primarily a guitar player. The problem was, it sounded great in my own rooms, but our practice room is in a portable (nothing under the floor) and most stages are elevated platforms. My understanding is the floors were acting like a membrane that absorbed my sweet tone. And volume. It sucked. But no more!
I bought this thing at a local store after reading all the reviews, and because I was offered a 30-day return policy. That 30 days is going to expire and I WILL NOT give up my GRAMMA. I gigged with it the first night I had it and my amp sounded AMAZING. 150 watts through 2x8's, and I was easily heard among the drums and lead guitars using tube amps. My amp sounded like I've wanted to sound since I've been playing with this band. It was the first time I realized my amp wasn't worthless. All the guys in band were blown away at the difference it made. It truly does isolate your amp so it's only moving air, like the manufacturer intended, and gives you the sound and tone you should have. Seriously, I'm a pretty peaceful guy, but I'll fight someone who tries to take my GRAMMA.
I don't know if guitars would really benefit because of their higher frequencies, but if any speakers are hard for you to hear the GRAMMA could be a great solution that'll cost hundreds less then replacing your rig or monitors. I give it a gigging bassist's two thumbs up.

The GRAMMA (Gig and Recording, Amp and Monitor, Modulation Attenuator) is an incredibly effective patented device that's used to float an amp or loudspeaker. GRAMMA yields nearly total acoustic isolation, resulting in a purity of tone that has to be heard to be believed!
