Bassocontinuo Ultra Feet Available in the UK
Bassocontinuo has launched Ultra Feet with the boast of them being the world's first fully lab-tested isolation feet.
Bassocontinuo's Ultra Feet have been designed to reduce the effects of vibration on audio equipment. Coming in sets of three or four, these new isolation pucks use energy-absorbing materials which disperse vibration as heat, says the Italian company. Furthermore, the manufacturer states that this vibration reduction has been proven by measured data.
The results of the testing conducted in collaboration with the Italian vibration-control consultant Vicoter, and the University Politecnico in Milan can be seen on the company's website.
Ultra Feet are available in four different load-rated 'levels'. Each Ultra Foot is also height-adjustable and decoupled not only where it interfaces with the supporting surface but also where it meets the equipment.
Ultra Feet's upper-level models use Technoge, a unique 'soft-solid' polyurethane material. We're told that Technoge combines the 3D deformation properties of a fluid and the memory-shape properties of a solid body, as well as offering consistent performance over its lifespan.
Bassocontinuo's Ultra Feet are available in sets of three or four priced from £127 (set of three) and £159 (set of four).

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
