 Acoustic
Sciences introduces the IsoDeck System, the non-rubber answer
to deck isolation. While rubber has long been regarded as
an excellent isolator, its density under load actually transmits
sound. At ASC, the industry leader in small room audio acoustics,
our goal is to improve your room acoustics. We engineered
our IsoDeck with a technical woven high density felt, the
only isolator that won’t transmit sound. Plus, we don’t
stop with just floating the deck on felt. We add WallDamp,
a visco-elastic damping material that stops vibration cold.
What you get with the ASC IsoDeck is superior isolation plus
vibrational damping.

| How
it Works
The natural process of sound vibration creates
friction and unwanted energy buildup through the bending and
slipping of adjacent surfaces. This in turn causes the floor
to add unwanted acoustic coloration to your room. The IsoDeck
isolates the floor, using a unique high density 1” felt
strip called a slot loaded spring, inserted into the bottom
of every joist to float the deck. The felt is lightly glued
into a 3/4” x 3/16” rabbeted groove.
The top of each joist is covered with strips
of damping polymer called WallDamp. Two layers of subfloor
rest on the joists, separated by squares of WallDamp. With
this system, even high power sub-bass energy is isolated and
rapidly dissipated. You get real sound isolation, reduced
floor resonance, and damping even when there’s thunderous
sound.
 Why
not Use Rubber Supports?
Consider your room as a giant guitar body.
It resonates at certain sound frequencies, noticeable only
when the volume is turned up. The floor helps to propagate
the room resonance, so we want to isolate it with a deck.
Rubber feet transmit sound, causing the deck to bounce which
in turn causes acoustic problems in your studio or home theater.
Conversely, the ASC IsoDeck floats on technical felt which
doesn’t transmit sound, there is no resonance. This
in turn actually improves room acoustics while effectively
isolating sound.
