Ultra SS
The Ultra SS is Stillpoints' stainless-steel isolation "foot," a two-way vibration-dissipating device that can be threaded into the base of a loudspeaker (via an adapter) in place of stock spikes, or used under electronics with the flat "hard hat" cap facing up. Internally it houses four layers of tiny ceramic bearings arranged so that vibrational energy — from either the floor or the component above — is converted into predominantly horizontal motion and dissipated as heat, with no direct vertical path through the device.
