Anti-vibration feet – Ceramic-Ball Isolation System
GigaWatt Ceramic-Ball Isolation - is a system of anti-vibration feet, effectively isolating the device from adverse vibrations.
FEATURES
- two massive aluminum segments
- extremely hard ceramic rings and balls
- additional special 5 mm thick elastomer
- effective isolation of mechanical vibrations
- impact on improved sound quality
GigaWatt Ceramic Ball Isolation System – is a development of the concept used in the Rolling-Ball Isolation System.
Ceramic” feet are more massive and larger – they consist of two segments. The purpose of the system is to minimize the number of contact points of the feet, and then the conditioner’s cabinet with the floor, which results in a significant reduction of mechanical vibration, which negatively affects the conditioner’s internal components degrading its sound.
The “Ceramic” version uses two massive aluminum segments in which ceramic rings with balls are embedded. Zirconium oxide (ZrO2) is a harder material than steel, can handle higher point loads, and thanks to the matched rings also allows radial movement.
The operation of ceramic ball rings is similar to that of a conventional ball bearing. The difference, in addition to the material used, lies in the size and number of individual components, the details of construction and the direction of operation of the bearing, since the feet are mainly intended to carry heavy axial loads in one direction, rather than radial loads as in a conventional ball bearing.
In addition, the underside component of the feet is equipped with a special elastomer to quench the initial vibration coming from the ground.
The Ceramic-Ball Isolation System feet are factory-fitted to the flagship PowerMaster conditioner. For other conditioner models, they are available as an option on request.
The Ceramic-Ball Isolation System can also be used with other audio equipment.
