  M3X Isolation Bases

"The…Brinkmann Balance turntable System... and HRS M3 Isolation Base is - with the exception of the Rockport System III Serius - the best turntable system I've ever heard.”

The M3X Isolation Base is the latest generation of reference level isolation bases from Harmonic Resolution Systems. It is manufactured from six different materials including two proprietary polymers, billet machined aircraft aluminums, and polished black granite. The M3X load range is matched to the component weight for maximum performance and can be modified in the future to preserve initial investment. The M3X is the result of more than a decade of research and development into achieving true reference level audio system performance.

This unique design utilizes six different materials to optimize stiffness, geometry, mass, and impedance characteristics.

Each material is carefully selected for optimum performance and functionality. The M3 Isolation Base also uses two different proprietary HRS elastomer formulations. The first was developed to maximize isolation efficiency, and the second was developed to control and eliminate residual energy.

 

A finely polished black granite contact plate is used in the M3 design to directly support your audio component providing exceptional beauty and years of scratch resistant service. The M3 Isolation Base is produced in four standard sizes. Each size can be purchased in any of the four different load ranges to optimize component performance.

The standard color is black, but inquires for custom colors, sizes, and load ranges are welcome.

  • Broadband noise reduction system maximizes performance
  • Highly effective on wide range of surfaces and structures
  • Low profile compact design minimizes space requirements
  • Standard and custom sizes ensure full system integration
  • Integrates directly into HRS audio stands without modification
  • Selection assistance from extensive HRS application library
