Description
IsoAcoustics Aperta SUB Series Subwoofer Isolation
The IsoAcoustics Aperta SUB Series Subwoofer Isolation decouples subwoofers from the supporting surface, preventing the physical transfer of energy that excites the surface, causes room rattle, and disturbs neighbors.
The patented IsoAcoustics isolation also prevents the subwoofer vibrations from reflecting on the supporting surface and being conducted back up the subwoofer cabinet. Managing these reflections eliminates muddy bass smear and reveals greater clarity and definition.

Low profile, innovative shape
The Aperta Sub Series has a low-profile design and is compatible with front firing and side-firing subwoofers. The innovative shape allows the Aperta Sub Series to be positioned directly underneath the subwoofer cabinet without interference with the existing subwoofer feet.
Carpet disks are included with the Aperta Sub Series for use on carpeted surfaces. The carpet disks provide a strong connection through the carpet to provide a solid foundation for the Aperta Sub Series.
Built for Bass – More bass, less rattle
We are hard-wired to pick up bass rhythms more than other tones, and low bass frequencies allow the listener to feel a deep syncopated connection to their favorite music or movies.
With a large driver producing low frequencies, the subwoofer creates a large amount of energy that can excite the supporting surface, interfere with other audio components and annoy your neighbors.
The Aperta Sub provides a high degree of subwoofer isolation and cleans up the muddy low frequency sound, resulting in tighter bass response and greater clarity. The unique patented isolators are directional and are designed to be positioned with the logo facing forward, to resist lateral deflection and oscillations, for greater accuracy and focus.
The Aperta Sub is a must-have for home theatre lovers, HiFi enthusiasts, and bass junkies of all ages and is especially beneficial for those who live in apartments or condos.
FAQ’s
Can the Aperta Sub be used on Carpet?
Yes, each Aperta Sub includes 4 Carpet Discs to be assembled in conjunction with thick pile carpets. These Disks provide a strong connection with the flooring below and make sure your subwoofer still has a solid base.
How do I install the Aperta Sub?
The Aperta Sub is quite possibly the simplest of our products to use. With a sculpted aluminum frame, the Aperta Sub is delivered in the box ready for use. This means all you need to do is simply place it underneath your sub and enjoy listening to the benefits of IsoAcoustics patented isolation technology.
Can the Aperta Sub be rotated so that the IsoAcoustics logo is facing sideways?
For best results, we recommend positioning the stands with the IsoAcoustics logo facing forward, in the same direction as the driver. For a clean look, you can turn the stands backwards so that the logo is not visible.
The IsoAcoustics patented isolators are directional. They are shaped with an internal taper and concave that prevents off axis movements and keeps the energy on-axis and aligned with the direction of the transducer’s travel
For side-firing subwoofers, the Aperta Sub will work best turned sideways so the isolators are aligned with the driver.
How do I determine if the Aperta Sub is right for me?
We recommend measuring the dimensions of the Aperta Sub against the flat bottom surface of your subwoofer to verify how they will fit. The subwoofer should be the same size or larger than the stand. A few inches of overhang on each side is acceptable. We recommend using our online calculator to determine if the Aperta Sub is the best fit for your speakers.
Does the Aperta Sub have height or tilt adjustment?
No, the Aperta Sub does not feature height or tilt adjustment. The other models in the Aperta series feature tilt adjustment because they are designed to be used with bookshelf speakers which require proper focus to ear level. The Aperta Sub is designed for use with subwoofers which do not require tilt adjustment.
