Experience a moment of zaZen
zaZen (sitting meditation) is a stable isolation platform designed for turntables, tube amps and other sensitive audio equipment. The combination of the platform mass and the integrated IsoAcoustics isolation technology allows audio gear to reveal greater acoustic clarity and detail.
Support your turntable
Navigating the tiny variations in the vinyl’s groove, the turntable stylus is a delicate instrument. Problems occur at higher volumes, footsteps cause the record to skip, but what is often overlooked are the finer details that are missing or distorted as a result of vibrations. The zaZen provides a stable platform with a low noise floor that allows turntables to reach their full potential without interference from structure-borne vibrations, revealing a new level of detail and clarity.
It's not just about turntables, however. Tube amplifiers and other sensitive audio equipment will also benefit from being positioned on the zaZen stand and decoupled from unwanted vibrations.
IsoAcoustics patented isolation technology
One of the most important components of this platform is the integrated isolators which use IsoAcoustics patented isolation technology. The combination of the mass from the dense platform with the integrated isolators creates a high degree of isolation, allowing turntables and electronic components to perform at their best, revealing greater acoustic clarity and detail.
How do I choose which zaZen model to use with my turntable or audio component?
The zaZen model should be selected based on the weight they will be supporting. The zaZen I is recommended for lighter turntables and components and has a weight capacity of 11.3 KG. The zaZen II has a weight capacity of up to 18.1 kg. It is also important to ensure that the component can fit on top of the zaZen platform which measures 432 x 381mm. For heavier turntables and components, we recommend the DELOS series.
What is the difference between the DELOS and zaZen?
Both the zaZen and DELOS feature dense platforms combined with integrated IsoAcoustics isolators. They each provide a low noise floor to allow turntables and components to reveal greater clarity and detail. The DELOS series is designed for heavier turntables that weigh up to 100lbs.and features a larger butcher block platform with larger integrated isolators. The zaZen has a lower profile and is designed for lighter turntables and components that weigh up to 40 lbs. The DELOS is available in Maple or Walnut which are both very dense and hardwoods. The zaZen platform is denser by volume, but still much lighter than the DELOS models because of its smaller size which is more ideal for lighter components.
